Our trained technicians have years of experience diagnosing wet belt issues and carrying out replacements using genuine or OEM-quality parts.

What is a Wet Belt?

A wet belt – also known as an oil-immersed timing belt – runs inside the engine, lubricated by oil. It synchronises the camshaft and crankshaft so your engine valves open and close at precisely the right time.

Wet belts are quieter, smoother, and more efficient than traditional dry belts (cambelts/timing belts/timing chains), but they require regular oil changes and inspections to stay in good condition. Without maintenance, oil contamination can cause the belt to deteriorate and potentially lead to serious engine failure.

Which Cars Use Wet Belts?

Wet belts are commonly fitted to Ford, Peugeot, Citroën, and Vauxhall vehicles built after the mid-2000s. If you’re unsure whether your vehicle has one, simply give David Dexters a call – we’ll check your vehicle details and confirm quickly.
