Peugeot & Citroën Wet Belt Replacement in Hebburn
1.2 PureTech wet belt replacement at Banks Of The Tyne Motor Company in Hebburn. We replace the timing belt, check the oil pick-up and vacuum pump for belt debris and use the correct oil for Peugeot, Citroën, DS and Vauxhall models.
PureTech Wet Belt Specialists
The 1.2 PureTech petrol engine, used in the Peugeot 208, 2008, 308 and 3008, the Citroën C3, C4, C5 Aircross and Berlingo, and some DS and Vauxhall models, has a timing belt that runs in oil. The belt can deteriorate early, shedding material that blocks the oil pick-up and can affect the brake vacuum pump.
Stellantis has shortened the recommended replacement interval on many of these engines. We'll check the right interval for your car, measure the belt, replace it with the tensioner where needed, clean the oil pick-up and refill with oil that meets the manufacturer's specification.
