What we do
Three jobs, done properly
This isn’t general servicing or breakdown work. It’s bigger, planned jobs — the kind that need the right parts and a full day set aside.
Cambelt & timing belt replacement
A cambelt keeps the engine’s valves and pistons in time. It is replaced at the manufacturer’s interval, before it wears out.
- Timing belt and tensioner kit
- Water pump where it is driven by the belt
- Petrol and diesel engines
Wet belt replacement
Wet belts run inside the engine in oil. As they wear they can shed material into the oil and cause oil pressure problems.
- Ford 1.0 EcoBoost (Fiesta, Focus, EcoSport, Puma and more)
- 1.2 PureTech (Peugeot, Citroën, DS, Vauxhall)
- Oil system checked for belt debris
Clutch & flywheel replacement
Slipping, juddering or a high biting point usually means the clutch is worn. Many cars also have a dual mass flywheel.
- Clutch kit replacement
- Dual mass flywheel replacement
- Release bearing and slave cylinder

Belt, wet belt or chain?
Which timing system does your car have?
It depends on the exact engine, not just the model — the same car can have a belt, a wet belt or a chain depending on the engine fitted. Send your registration and we will confirm.
| Type | Where it runs | When it is replaced | Warning signs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cambelt (dry timing belt) | Outside the engine, behind a cover | At the manufacturer’s age or mileage interval, whichever comes first | Often none before it fails — that is why it is changed on schedule |
| Wet belt (belt-in-oil) | Inside the engine, in contact with the engine oil | At the manufacturer’s interval, or sooner if it shows wear or oil contamination | Oil pressure warning, engine warning light, belt debris in the oil, rattle |
| Timing chain | Inside the engine, lubricated by oil | On condition — usually when it has stretched or become noisy | Rattle on start-up, timing-related fault codes |
This site handles cambelts, wet belts and clutches. Timing chain work is not covered.
Wet belt engines
Driving a Ford EcoBoost or a PureTech?
Several popular small petrol engines use a wet belt — a timing belt that runs inside the engine in the oil. When these belts wear, pieces of belt can end up in the oil and block the oil pick-up, which can lead to low oil pressure and serious engine damage.
If your car has a Ford 1.0 EcoBoost or a 1.2 PureTech engine and you are unsure when the belt was last changed, it is worth getting it checked and quoted.
