  2. the hose between the thermostat housing and the expansion tank
  3. the front timing belt cover.

Scheme 177

Scheme 177: Installing the front timing cover

Note. Make sure that the belt cover is in position before the cover is pressed in against the rear timing casing, to prevent damage to the nipple on the thermostat housing.

Install

  1. the front timing belt cover
  2. the hose between the thermostat housing and the expansion tank
  3. the surround, cover and air ducts for the control module box.

Scheme 178

Scheme 178: Removing the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor

Remove

  1. the upper timing belt cover. Disconnect the connector for the temperature sensor
  2. the temperature sensor from the thermostat housing. Use «9512885»(ref-403953-S00557342822011061000000) .

Note. Put paper underneath the sensor to prevent coolant spillage.

Installing the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor

Install
