Ford Transit Wet Belts

Ford Transit models often feature advanced wet belt systems, which are integral to the engine’s smooth operation.

Unlike traditional timing belts, wet belts run inside the engine, lubricated by oil. This design reduces friction, enhances efficiency, and contributes to a quieter ride. However, these systems require meticulous maintenance to ensure longevity and prevent potential engine damage.

Mill Road Motors specialises in servicing Ford Transit wet belts, offering inspection, replacement, and repair services tailored to these unique systems. Over time, wet belts can degrade due to oil contamination, mileage, or general wear and tear. If neglected, a failing wet belt can cause significant and costly engine damage. Using the incorrect oil is often a cause of premature failure of these belts.

Our trained technicians use state-of-the-art tools and manufacturer-recommended parts to ensure your wet belt is in peak 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 no more than 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.

Choose our expert team to keep your Ford Transit’s wet belt system performing efficiently and reliably, ensuring your vehicle remains roadworthy for the long haul.

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.
