Les warnings de la Clé
Before carrying out this operation, we recommend watching the video "10 things to know when changing a timing belt" as well as the video "How to empty and bleed the coolant fluid circuit", since you will have to carry out both of these operations to avoid breaking the engine.
Never ever turn the engine in an anti-clockwise direction.
You will need to remove the Damper pulley. You must not use a socket wrench to unscrew it. You could lose its setting, or bend the pin in the engine.
