How do you replace the timing belt of the Volvo V40?

Model: Volvo V40 MK 2 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Timing belt

To replace the timing belt on the Volvo V40, it is necessary to open the hood in order to access the components located inside the engine compartment: on the left side, some bulky components such as the air filter and the windshield wiper fluid tank must be removed to access the side of the engine block. Here there will be a protective panel that must be removed by loosening the fastening screws; some screws will be accessible by removing the front right wheel and the corresponding fender. At this point, the central nut of the tensioner roller must be loosened, removing the belt itself and installing a new replacement piece.
