Ford Ecoboost Wet Belts

At Mill Road Motors, we are fully equipped and experienced in maintaining and repairing Ford Ecoboost engines, including their distinctive wet belt system.

Ford’s Ecoboost engines, known for their fuel efficiency and performance, utilise a wet belt to drive essential engine components, along with the oil pump. Unlike traditional timing chains or belts, the wet belt sits within the engine oil and requires careful attention to ensure long-lasting performance and reliability.

Over time, the wet belt in Ecoboost engines can experience wear, particularly if the oil is not changed regularly or if the engine runs low on oil. If left unchecked, this can lead to premature wet belt failure, resulting in significant engine damage. Using the incorrect oil is often a cause of premature failure of these belts.

At Mill Road Motors, our experienced technicians are fully trained in the specific needs of Ford Ecoboost engines and their wet belt systems. We offer a comprehensive service that includes inspecting the wet belt, ensuring correct oil levels, and replacing the wet belt if necessary, in line with the manufacturer’s guidelines.

By choosing Mill Road Motors, you can trust that we will maintain your Ford Ecoboost engine to the highest standards, using only quality parts and advanced diagnostic equipment. We have manufacturer tooling to allow us to carry out any repairs to the highest standard. Regular servicing of the wet belt and associated components is essential to avoid costly repairs and to keep your engine running smoothly. If you own a Ford Ecoboost vehicle, don’t wait for problems to arise, book a service with us today to ensure your engine stays in optimal condition.

Whether it’s time for a routine replacement or you’re experiencing warning signs like unusual engine noise, a hard brake pedal, decreased performance, or dashboard alerts, we provide prompt and reliable solutions.

We recommend replacing these timing belts before the manufacturers’ set intervals due to the frequency of failures we are seeing. We would advise that the timing belt be changed at least every 50,000 miles. Engine oil replacement is also critical on these engines and we would recommend replacing the oil at least every 10,000 miles.

At Mill Road Motors, our affiliations with respected organisations like the RMI, IGA, The Motor Ombudsman and 1 TEC Auto Hub ensure we deliver services of the highest standard, staying up-to-date with the latest automotive technologies.
