How do you replace the timing belt of the Volkswagen Caddy?

Model: Volkswagen Caddy MK 3, 2K - Years 2003-2020
Part: Timing belt

In order to replace the timing belt of the Volkswagen Caddy, you need to loosen the screws that secure the front right wheel of the vehicle, removing it along with the corresponding wheel arch: once this has been removed, you can locate the nut that secures the tensioner roller underneath. This pulley can then be removed from its housing, reducing the tension of the belt and completely removing it; after removal, you can insert the new belt, ensuring it is properly tensioned and checking that everything is functioning correctly.
