🔧 What Is a Wet Belt?

A wet belt, or belt-in-oil timing belt, runs inside your engine, constantly lubricated by engine oil. This design increases efficiency and reduces friction compared to traditional dry belts. However, wet belts require specialist replacement skills because improper handling can cause engine damage.

Replacing your wet belt on schedule prevents:

• Engine timing failure

• Oil contamination

• Damage to pumps and other vital engine parts

Investing in a timely replacement can save hundreds or even thousands in repairs later.
