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

Model: Volkswagen Up MK 1 - Years 2011-2024
Part: Timing belt

The timing belt of the Volkswagen Up can be replaced by opening the hood, so that it is possible to access the components inside the engine compartment: on the left side of the latter it will be possible to identify the side cover of the engine block, which must be removed by unscrewing the fixing screws. In this way, the underlying belt can be identified, which can be removed by removing the tensioner roller; at this point it will be possible to insert the new belt around the pulleys, repositioning the tensioner roller and verifying that everything is functioning properly.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
