Part: Timing belt

Video tutorial

To replace the timing chain on the 1.6 THP engine, you need to completely remove the left side cover of the engine block, along with the valve cover. This will make the chain visible, allowing you to reduce its tension by loosening the bolts that secure the tensioner.

At this point, you can completely slide the chain off the sprockets of the crankshaft and camshafts, so you can insert the new replacement part. After the replacement, reinstall the tensioner, tension it, and check its operation.
