Part: Timing belt

Video tutorial

Disconnect and lift the bonnet, then disconnect the battery cables. The drive belt will likely be located on one of the two shorter sides of the engine, so if you do not have space to access the belt, you will need to remove any obstructing parts.

Remove the tension on the belt by rotating the tensioner and then take off the belt. Check the condition of the belt, and before installing a new one, ensure it is the same as the one you just removed.

Once the belt is removed, you can check the remaining pulleys and retrace the steps for reassembly.
