Video tutorial

Replace the timing belt on the Renault Modus. Remove the front right wheel after raising the vehicle on a jack.

After removing the splash guard from under the wing, take off the windscreen washer reservoir. Remove the cover panel for the belt (remove the sensor if present).

Loosen the second tensioner and slide the belt out of its seat. After fitting the new belt, use a spanner to install the tensioner roller, tightening until the belt has the correct tension (fit both belts).

Finally, check the tensioner and the belt itself. Refit the washer reservoir and the splash guard along with the wheel.
