TIMING BELT
Timing Belt & Wet Belt Replacement in Nantwich
Prevent major engine damage with timely inspections and expert belt replacement
The timing belt (also known as a cambelt) is one of the most critical components in your engine. It keeps the camshaft and crankshaft turning in perfect sync — and if it fails, it can cause serious, often irreversible, engine damage.
At D&D Tyres Nantwich, we offer timing belt and wet belt replacement for all makes and models, carried out by skilled, experienced technicians using quality parts that meet manufacturer specifications.
What Is a Timing Belt or Wet Belt?
- A timing belt is a reinforced rubber belt that keeps your engine running smoothly by coordinating the movement of internal parts.
- A wet belt performs the same function but runs inside the engine, lubricated by engine oil. Wet belts are quieter and longer-lasting — but they can still fail if left too long.
Many newer petrol engines from Ford, PSA (Peugeot/Citroën), and others now use wet belts, so it’s important to check which type your car has and when it’s due for replacement.
Why Belt Replacement Is So Important
Timing belts (and wet belts) wear over time and become more likely to snap or degrade, especially if:
- You do high mileage
- The vehicle is over 5–6 years old
- The belt is contaminated with oil or coolant
- It’s never been replaced
A failed timing or wet belt can cause thousands of pounds of engine damage. That’s why manufacturers recommend changing them at set intervals (often every 5 years or 60,000–100,000 miles depending on the vehicle).
