I would just add, careful not to twist too much the new belt while sliding it trough this tight space. These belts don't like to be 'locally' twisted because of potentially fragile material inside, such as composite fibers not designed to be twisted. I wonder if anyone having passed their belt trough that tight space noticed the belt running closer near the left side of the cam pulleys once everything in place?

Hi everyone
I spent a considerable amount of time today changing the timing belt on my D5 V50 2008 It took a long time due to the engine still being in the car (and it being my first time changing a belt on the V50)! But I can also clarify that you don't need to take the bottom crank pulley off in order to change the belt. It's just a little awkward sliding the belt into position. |

You have 2 auxiliary belts there, and I only changed one of them, had completely forgotten about the tensioners when buying the parts. They are next on my list! |
