The tension and replacement of the timing belt

Since incorrect working methods can cause severe engine damage, be sure to comply with instructions.

In diesel engines replace the timing belt to produce every 120 000 km.

Replacing the toothed belt is described in Section 2.5.2.1, Section 2.5.2.2, Section 2.5.2.3, and Section 2.5.2.4.
