Video tutorial

Watch this video for the disassembly and replacement of the timing belt on a Renault Clio. Open the bonnet and lift it, securing it in place. Raise the car with a jack, remove the wheel along with the associated splash guard, and disconnect the power wiring if present using pliers.

Use a spanner to loosen the tensioner pulley and slide the belt off its seat. Using a socket wrench, unscrew the tensioner pulley bolt and remove the water pump.

Fit the new water pump, the tensioner, and the belt itself, tightening everything with the socket wrench. Finally, install the fan kit with the securing bolts.

The tyre pressure warning light displayed on the instrument cluster of the Kia Rio can be reset by inflating the tyres until they reach the recommended pressure value: this value is indicated on the sticker affixed to the driver's door pillar. Once all tyres have been inflated to the recommended pressure, turn on the ignition to check that the light has disappeared: if it is still present, it may be necessary to drive for a few miles, allowing the sensors to work and thus turning off the light.
