β οΈ WHY DOES YOUR WET BELT MATTER?
Unlike a conventional timing belt, a wet belt spends its life running in engine oil. Over time, incorrect or degraded oil and normal ageing can cause the belt material to deteriorate, swell or break down.
Small particles of belt material can contaminate the oil system and potentially restrict the oil pickup. Left unchecked, deterioration can lead to oil-pressure problems and, in the worst cases, serious and very expensive engine damage.
Thatβs why using the CORRECT manufacturer-specified engine oil, sticking to servicing intervals and having the belt condition checked is so important.
If you own a wet-belt-equipped car and you're unsure when it was last inspected or when replacement is due, give us a call. Prevention is considerably cheaper than an engine!
