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

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 5, Polo V, MK 5, MK V, 6R - Years 2009-2017
Part: Timing belt

In order to replace the timing belt of the Volkswagen Polo, you need to lift the car using a jack, so that you can remove the right front wheel and corresponding wheel arch: once these parts have been removed, you can proceed by loosening the central nut of the tensioner roller, and then completely removing it. This will allow the belt to loosen so that it can be removed; after removal, you can insert the new one and check that everything is working correctly.
