How to Replace the Timing Belt on a Renault Clio

Model: Renault Clio Clio 2, MK 2 - Years 1998-2005
Part: Timing belt

Open and lift the bonnet. You need to mark the position of the tensioner for the belt so you can return it to the same position during reassembly. Once you have unscrewed the bolt, you will have easy access to the belt, which, once loosened, will allow you to remove it. Before reassembling the belt, check that they are of the same length. Once done, slide the belt into the correct position and return the alternator to its marked position, then tighten the bolt you previously unscrewed to secure the tensioner in its correct position.
