Wet Belt Replacement – Bedale

It’s now well known that wet belts can present problems.

A wet belt is a cambelt that is permanently in oil, the idea being that there is less energy lost to friction, and therefore greater fuel economy. The potential downside is that having the belt in oil means there can be a build-up of soot and other impurities in the teeth on the belt. This can make it wear out sooner than a dry belt might, and so it may need to be replaced sooner.

Suggestions that your wet belt needs inspecting include trouble starting the engine or maybe your car is running poorly when idling. It may feel unstable when you’re driving at high speeds. Eventually, the teeth can come loose which can cause skipping and your engine getting out of sync.

As with many car troubles, the same symptoms can suggest a variety of possible causes, so when you come to Hare's Garage, our friendly team will ask you all the right questions and will give your car a thorough inspection to make sure we identify the cause of the problems. If your wet belt does need replacing, we can do that for you, here at our workshop in Bedale. We’ll explain everything clearly and we’ll never start any work without your approval.
