Metric Sockets and Allen Wrenches

• Several metric sockets and Allen wrenches are required for the procedure. The required metric sockets include 10 mm, 13 mm, 14 mm, and 19 mm, all of which are 12-point sockets. The sockets are used to remove bolts that hold together various parts of your engine. They are placed on top of the bolts, have a matching size, and are loosened and tightened by using a socket wrench.
  
  

Torx Sockets

• Two different Torx sockets are needed for the timing belt change: a T45 and a T30. Torx is a trademarked type of screw head that is marked by its six-point star pattern. The advantage of Torx drivers is that they prevent over-tightening and can be used by power tools at a lesser risk of slipping when tightened, compared to a Phillips head screwdriver.
  
  

Metric Wrenches

• The metric wrenches used in the timing procedure are a complement to the metric sockets. The wrenches are offered in the same size as metric sockets. The wrenches can be used to manipulate bolts on their own or secure nuts that are attached to the bolts while the bolts are loosened with metric sockets. You will need metric wrenches that match the sizes of the required metric sockets, including a 10 mm, 13 mm, 14 mm, and 19 mm.
  
  

Timing Belt and Coolant

• A new timing belt and two or three bottles of coolant will be required during the procedure. Once you have gained access to the timing belt, you can slip the old belt off and replace it with the new one. The coolant is used to replace coolant lost while moving other engine parts out of the way to access the timing belt and mechanism.
