Replacing the timing belt on the vehicle is a rather complex operation. Let's detail the steps: first, remove the coolant reservoir, then remove the right front wheel and the right wing.

Access the service belt pulleys from underneath the vehicle and remove them, as well as the water pump. Next, remove the timing belt protection cover.

At this point, you need to remove the two tensioners and be very careful to mark the relative positions of the crankshaft and camshaft pulleys with a marker, as this is crucial for maintaining the correct engine timing. Now, position the new belt and proceed to reassemble all components in reverse order.
