To replace the timing chain on a Suzuki Grand Vitara, loosen the bolts securing the right front wheel: once removed, proceed to take it off along with the corresponding wheel arch. At this point, you will have access to the side of the engine: the chain tensioner must be released from its securing bolts to remove it. Now, extract the chain which will have reduced tension, allowing you to insert the new one and check its operation.
