2006 V50 T5 timing belt replacement

[Teal854T]

I'm replacing timing belt on 2006 v50 t5 with145k miles. I have done timing belt replacement on 850 t5, s70 t5, s70 glt. I did them without removing crank pulley. Is it same for v50 t5? Do I need to remove crank pulley or can I do it without removing the pulley?

Thanks

I find (personally) that removing the harmonic balancer makes the job much easier and faster. I'm not sure if it can be done with the balancer in place like the older cars.
