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

Model: Seat Leon 1P - Years 2005-2013
Part: Timing belt

In order to replace the timing belt of the Seat Leon, it is necessary to lift the car so that it is possible to loosen the bolts that secure the right front wheel and remove the corresponding wheel arch: once these components have been removed, it will be possible to loosen the central nut of the belt tensioner pulley, so that the tension of the belt itself is reduced making it possible to remove it. Once the old belt has been removed, it will be possible to insert the new one, tensioning it and verifying that everything is functioning properly.
