Ford EcoBoost Wet Belt Replacement in Hebburn

Ford 1.0 EcoBoost wet belt replacement at Banks Of The Tyne Motor Company in Hebburn. We replace the belt-in-oil timing belt, inspect the oil pick-up for debris and refill with the oil Ford specifies.

Ford EcoBoost Wet Belt Specialists

Ford's 1.0 EcoBoost engine, found in the Fiesta, Focus, EcoSport, Puma, B-Max and C-Max, uses a 'wet' timing belt that runs in engine oil. Over time the belt can degrade, and fragments can block the oil pump pick-up, starving the engine of oil and causing serious damage.

Using the wrong oil, extended oil change intervals and lots of short journeys can all accelerate wear. We replace the wet belt and tensioner, inspect the oil pick-up and sump for debris, and refill with oil that meets Ford's specification for the EcoBoost.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a wet belt?

A wet belt is a timing belt that runs inside the engine, bathed in oil, rather than in a dry housing. It's designed to be quieter and more efficient, but it's sensitive to oil quality.

How often should the EcoBoost wet belt be replaced?

Ford's interval depends on the engine version and year. We'll check the correct interval for your car and can inspect the belt's condition if you're unsure.

Can I prevent wet belt problems?

Yes. Change the oil on time using oil that meets Ford's specification, and avoid stretching service intervals. Regular servicing is the best protection.
