How do you replace the timing belt of the Renault Clio?

Model: Renault Clio MK 3, Clio 3, Clio III - Years 2005-2013
Part: Timing belt

In order to replace the timing belt of the Renault Clio, you need to completely remove the front right wheel of the car, along with the corresponding wheel arch: once these components have been removed, you will be able to locate the tensioner pulley located on the side of the engine block that needs to be removed. Once the pulley is removed, the tension of the belt will decrease and it can be removed from its housing and replaced with a new one: after the replacement, you can reassemble the removed parts and check that everything is functioning properly.
