Replacement of the Timing Belt
Model: Volkswagen Transporter
T4, MK 4
- Years 1990-2003
Replacing the timing belt is a maintenance task that requires good mechanical knowledge, as an error in its installation could severely compromise the engine. Start by removing the intake hose, disconnecting the air conditioning sensor connectors, and then removing the cover of the auxiliary belt; remove the right front wheel and slide off the auxiliary belt; remove the caps from the pulleys and take off the water pump pulley, the idler pulleys, and the crankshaft pulley to remove the timing belt cover, first aligning the timing marks; remove the air filter housing, the right front headlamp, the power steering oil reservoir, and the windscreen washer fluid reservoir to improve working space. Drain the coolant, loosen the tensioner, and remove the old timing belt; then replace the water pump, the tensioner, and install the new timing belt. During reassembly, consider whether to replace the auxiliary belt and the related idler pulleys as well.

How to Remove the Front Bumper of the Citroën C4 Picasso?
To remove the front bumper of the Citroën C4 Picasso, you need to take out all the rivets and screws that secure the piece to its housing: these screws are located inside the wheel arches of the front wheels and at the central upper part of the bumper itself. Once all these fastening elements have been removed, you can detach the bumper from its seat by disconnecting the connectors inside and then insert the new replacement part. The new part can then be secured and connected properly, ensuring it is correctly fixed in place. by ScegliAuto More videos
