In order to replace the timing belt of the Volkswagen Golf 7, you need to loosen the screws that secure the right front wheel, so that it can be removed along with the corresponding wheel arch. Once these parts have been removed, you will be able to locate the timing belt around the pulleys: you will need to remove it in order to insert the new belt, which must be tensioned using the tensioner roller.
