Why it matters
The Ford EcoBlue wet belt is different from a conventional cambelt.
On affected Ford diesel engines, the timing belt operates inside the engine and is exposed to engine oil. As the belt ages it can deteriorate, potentially releasing material into the lubrication system. A belt that is allowed to fail can turn a planned maintenance job into a major engine repair.
02
Protect the oil system
Wet belt deterioration can contaminate the oil system, which is why inspection and cleaning of related components matters.

FAQs
Ford Transit wet belt questions
Which Ford Transits have a wet belt?
Many Ford Transit and Transit Custom models fitted with the 2.0 EcoBlue diesel use an oil-immersed timing belt. Other Ford engines use different timing arrangements. Give us your registration so we can confirm your vehicle.
What happens if a wet belt starts to deteriorate?
Material can break away from the belt and circulate through the engine oil. In severe cases this can restrict oil flow and contribute to serious engine damage. A belt can also fail and cause loss of engine timing.
Should I wait until I hear a noise or see a warning light?
No. Preventative maintenance is the point of a belt replacement. Ask us to check your vehicle's specification and service history rather than waiting for a failure.
Can you quote from my registration?
Yes. Call Birchwood MOT on 01925 819141 with your registration and we'll discuss the vehicle and the work required.
