To replace the timing belt on the Volkswagen Passat, open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the left side, you will find the belt. Here, remove the central nut securing the pulleys around which the belt is arranged: by reducing the tension, you can completely remove it from its housing, replacing it with a new part.

After replacement, refit the pulleys, ensuring everything functions correctly.
