DON'T LEAVE IT TOO LONG

If a wet belt fails, the bill can stop being a service bill and start becoming an engine bill.

This is exactly why owners replace these belts preventatively. Once deterioration turns into oil-system contamination or lost timing, the cost can escalate dramatically.

WHY A SPECIALIST?

Because a wet belt is not just another timing-belt job.

Many independent garages simply do not want these jobs. Our workshop is being designed around them.

01Correct locking & timing approachSpecialist Ford-compatible tooling and a repeatable procedure.
02Attention to oil-system contaminationWet-belt deterioration can affect the oil system, so the job is approached as more than a belt swap.
03One specialist focusRather than being a general garage trying the job occasionally, the business is centred around these engines.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Before you book

Is every Ford 1.0 a wet-belt engine?

No. Ford changed designs across different models and production periods. We confirm the exact vehicle and engine before accepting a wet-belt booking.

Is the £950 price for every vehicle?

The £950 service is the intended standard price for qualifying 1.0 EcoBoost / 1.1 Ti-VCT wet-belt replacements. Additional faults, damaged components or non-standard previous repairs are quoted separately before extra work is carried out.

Why is preventative replacement worth it?

Because a deteriorating wet belt can become much more expensive than the belt itself. Debris in the oil system, low oil pressure, turbo damage or a belt failure with lost timing can quickly turn a service job into a major repair bill.

Are you a Ford main dealer?

No. London Ford Specialists is an independent specialist and is not affiliated with Ford Motor Company.
