How do you replace timing belt on 2003 Saturn vue 3.0l?

The Saturn VUE uses a Opel designed and manufactured GM V6 engine. This V6 engine is also used in the Cadillac Catera, Saab, and Saturn L vehicles. This engine does use a rubber timing belt and needs to be replaced every 100k. If the belt fails, you will suffer severe engine damage. The j42069 GM V6 timing belt tools are required to replace the belt on this engine and can be rented here: http://www.ledfix.com/timingbelttoolrental.html
