How to Replace the Poly-V Belt on a Renault Twingo I

Model: Renault Twingo Twingo 1 - Years 1993-2007
Part: V-belt

In this video, you will see how to replace the service belt on a Renault Twingo I: open the bonnet and lift the vehicle. From underneath, loosen the fixing device of the tensioner pulley with a 21 mm spanner, and set it aside. Remove the compressor belt and loosen the alternator bracket. Now you can loosen the multi-function belt and replace it. You can find this component on Motordoctor.it with the code K014PK928 for £34.44 plus £9.95 delivery charges. Now, refit the belt onto the crankshaft pulley, ensuring the belt is properly tensioned on all pulleys. Tighten the upper alternator bracket, then the lower one, and finally, replace the compressor belt. Return the compressor pulley to its original position, lower the vehicle, and run the engine for a few minutes.
