Video tutorial

To replace the timing belt on a Volvo V50, loosen the screws that secure the panel located at the bottom of the engine bay so that it can be removed. This will allow access to the crankshaft pulley.

You may also need to remove the front right wheel: by loosening this pulley and all others located on the left side of the engine block, you can detach the belt and replace it with a new spare part. After installing the new belt, reassemble all previously removed parts.
