To replace the timing belt on a Volvo C30, open the bonnet to access the left side of the engine block: here you will find the cover under which the belt is located, removing it along with the front right wheel and the cover of the corresponding wheel arch.

This will allow you to loosen the central nut of the tensioner pulley, reducing its tension and sliding it off the appropriate pulleys; at this point, you can insert the new belt, securing the central nuts of the pulleys and then covering everything with the panel.
