Does your car have a wet timing belt?

Wet timing belts run inside the engine and are lubricated by engine oil. Over time the belt can deteriorate, crack or begin breaking down.

Belt material can contaminate the engine oil and collect around the oil pickup strainer, potentially reducing oil pressure and causing further engine problems.

At CarsUpkeep in Bedford we carry out wet belt replacement on these engines regularly and can inspect the condition of the belt and advise you on the correct repair.

Wet Belt Problems & Warning Signs

A wet belt does not always give an obvious warning before deterioration becomes serious.

Signs can include visible cracking or deterioration of the belt, belt material in the engine oil, low oil pressure, unusual engine noises or previous use of incorrect engine oil.

If you are unsure about the condition of your wet belt, contact us with your vehicle registration and mileage and we can advise you.

Wet Belt Replacement FAQs

How much does wet belt replacement cost?

The price depends on the engine and vehicle. For example, our Ford 1.0 EcoBoost wet belt package Starts From £950, while 1.2 PureTech wet belt replacement starts from £650.

Do you replace the oil pump belt?

Where the engine uses a separate oil pump belt and it forms part of the repair, we replace it as part of the appropriate wet belt package.

Do you clean the oil pickup?

On the wet belt repairs where sump removal is required, we inspect and clean the oil pickup because deteriorated belt material can collect around the strainer.

Where are you located?

CarsUpkeep is based at 18B London Road, Bedford, MK42 0NS.
