Wet Belts – Marlow

Premature failure issues with certain Ford engine wet belts have been widely publicised for many years

Ford recommends that the wet belts in their 1.0 EcoBoost should be replaced every 10 years or 150,000 miles, but many owners of these vehicles are experiencing failure long before these milestones. Firstly, if your Ford Fiesta/Focus/Transit has an EcoBoost engine, don’t panic. Tower Garage (Marlow), are independent specialists in assessing and replacing the wet belts in these Ford engines, as we are equipped with the specialist timing tools and the necessary experience and expertise. We also work on all other marques of vehicles that have wet belts.

It is essential that a wet belt is replaced BEFORE it fails – total failure causes irreparable damage and will mean a completely new engine is required. Accessing and replacing a wet belt is a lengthy procedure but far less costly than a completely new engine. If you have an engine/oil warning light or any sign that your vehicle isn’t performing as it should, don’t delay… get it booked in with Tower Garage (Marlow), for an urgent assessment.

The team at Tower Garage (Marlow) want you to have as much reassurance as possible that you and your vehicle are in the best hands in the area. That’s why we work hard to achieve the memberships and affiliations that we’re accredited to; all to give you the peace of mind that comes from their endorsement of our service and workmanship. We’ve been members of the RMI Federation for over 65 years and also work under the watchful eye of the Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency, Trading Standards, Trust My Garage and the Independent Garage Association.
