Steps:
- Open the trunk.
- Remove the trunk carpets.
- Unscrew the 6 T50 screws by hand or using a wrench and a socket.
- Lift and set aside the engine hood.
- Remove the 4 screws from the belt protection cover using a 10mm wrench.
- Remove the protective cover from the belt.
- Our aim is to have a colored tensioner like the one shown in the picture and like the new tensioner.
- Use a 13mm hexagonal wrench and place it on the tensioner.
- Turn the tensioner clockwise until you can insert a 4mm-thick pin into the hole and lock it in this position.
- The tensioner is now locked and the accessory belt has loosened. It can now be removed.
- Remove the single 13mm hexagonal screw from the tensioner and pull it out.
- Fit the new tensioner roller, ensuring that the pin is correctly positioned.
- Tighten the single new 13mm screw to 62 N/m.
- Keep the tensioner in place for belt replacement.
- Use a screwdriver to remove the cap from the winding roller.
- Remove the single 13mm screw from the winding roller.
- Fit the new winding roller and tighten the single new 13mm screw to a torque of 50 N/m.
- The idler roller must be in the slack position and tapped. If this is not the case, refer to step 2 to adjust it.
- Install the accessory belt in the correct position, depending on whether or not the vehicle is fitted with an air-conditioning compressor. Make sure the belt passes correctly over the pulleys.
- Using a 13mm hex wrench, release the tensioner roller to remove the pin and return it to the tensioned position.
- Turn the crankshaft pulley two revolutions clockwise with a 19mm socket wrench to ensure that the belt turns and is positioned correctly.
- Replace the accessory belt cover and tighten the 4x 10mm screws to 10 N/m.
- No tightening torque is recommended by the RTA. The torque given is a suggestion.
