How to replace the timing belt of the Suzuki Alto?

Model: Suzuki Alto MK 7 - Years 2008-2014
Part: Timing belt

To replace the timing belt of the Suzuki Alto, open the bonnet and then unscrew the screws securing the grille at the front of the bumper. Removing this piece will provide easier access to the left side of the engine block, where the timing belt is located. By unscrewing the central pins of the pulleys, you can reduce the tension of the belt, remove it, and replace it with a new spare part. This operation should be performed every 75,000 miles; after replacement, remount all previously removed components.
