This task requires some basic tools and, above all, a guide like this one to explain how to proceed. Open and lift the bonnet, then disconnect the battery and place your vehicle on axle stands.

This will allow you to remove the wheel on the side of the belt for easier access. Now, working from underneath the vehicle, unscrew the tensioner to gain easier access to the belt, making it easier to remove.

Perform the replacement and retrace the steps in reverse for reassembling all parts.
