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

Model: Volkswagen Transporter MK 6, T6 - Years 2014-2025
Part: Timing belt

In order to replace the timing belt of the Volkswagen Transporter, you need to first loosen the screws that secure the front right wheel of the vehicle, and then loosen the screws that secure the corresponding wheel arch. This will allow you to access the screws that secure the belt tensioner pulley, which can be loosened by removing this piece. By doing this, the tension of the belt will be reduced and you will be able to remove it from its housing and replace it with a new spare part. After the replacement, you can reassemble all the other parts that were removed.
