How do you replace the timing belt of the Seat Leon 1.2 TSi?

Model: Seat Leon MK 3, 5F - Years 2012-2019
Part: Timing belt

In order to replace the timing belt of the Seat Leon 1.2 TSi, you need to loosen the screws that secure the front right wheel to its housing: once these are loosened, the front wheel and the wheel arch can be removed, accessing the components on the side of the engine block. The tensioner roller can be removed, reducing the tension of the timing belt; the belt can now be extracted so that it can be replaced with a new spare part. After the replacement, all the removed parts can be reassembled, checking their functioning.
