To replace the timing belt on a Volvo XC90, open the hood to access the screws that secure the protective panel on the left side of the engine block; you will also need to remove the right front wheel and the corresponding inner fender. This will give you access to the tensioner pulley, which can be removed from its position to reduce the tension on the belt and slide it off the respective pulleys; now you can install the new replacement part to ensure everything functions correctly.
