1. Remove the air cleaner assembly (see Chapter Power and exhaust systems).
2. Remove the two mounting bolts and remove the top section of the cover by pulling it upwards.
Bottom section
Engines 1.4, 1.6 and 1.8 l
1. Remove the top section (see above).
2. Overcoming the resistance of the spring, turn the tensioner and remove the loosened accessory drive belt from the pulley (see Chapter Routine maintenance).
Before removing, mark the original direction of the belt to ensure its further use (if the situation allows).
3. Set the parking brake, then jack up the front of the car and place it on supports. Remove the right front wheel and its wheel arch protection liner (see Chapter Body).
4. Loosen the mounting bolt and remove the accessory drive belt tensioner.

5. Remove the crankshaft pulley (see Removal and installation the crankshaft pulley).
6. Remove the mounting bolt, release the lower section of the cover from the mating clips on the rear and remove it from the engine.

2.0L Engines
1. Remove the top section of the lid (see above).
2. Overcoming the resistance of the spring, turn the tensioner and remove the loosened accessory drive belt from the pulley (see Chapter Routine maintenance).
Before removing, mark the original direction of the belt to ensure its further use (if the situation allows).
3. On models equipped with air conditioning, set the parking brake, then jack up the front of the vehicle and support it on stands. Remove the right front wheel arch liner and its protection liner (see Chapter Body).
4. Remove the mounting bolt and remove the accessory drive belt tensioner from the support bracket.
5. Remove the crankshaft pulley (see Removal and installation the crankshaft pulley).
6. Remove the two mounting bolts, release the two fasteners and the engine cover complete with sealing gasket.

Installation
1. Installation is carried out in the reverse order of dismantling the components - ensure that the required tightening forces are observed for the fasteners (see Specifications), as well as the reliability of the snap-in fasteners and the correct wiring.
A — Timing belt drive cover lower section fastening clamp (engines 1.4, 1.6 and 1.8 l)
B - When installing the upper section of the timing cover, ensure that the CMP sensor wiring is routed correctly (engines 1.4, 1.6 and 1.8 l)
