Wet belt
maintenance

A wet belt, also known as a belt-in-oil timing belt, is designed to run inside the engine immersed in oil. Like other timing belts, it helps keep engine components working in sync.

The oil specification matters: using the manufacturer-recommended oil and following the vehicle’s service schedule helps protect the belt. As a wet belt deteriorates, particles can enter the oil and potentially affect engine components.

Wet belt systems and replacement intervals differ between vehicles, and not every car has one. Check your handbook or ask us to help you understand the guidance for your vehicle.

Vehicle
diagnostics

A diagnostic scan connects to your vehicle’s onboard computer to read stored fault codes and information from monitored systems. It can help our mechanics investigate a dashboard warning light or a concern with the engine, exhaust, brakes or vehicle electronics.

A fault code is a useful starting point, not a complete diagnosis on its own. Our mechanics use the results alongside further checks to help identify what may be causing the issue and explain the next steps.

If a warning light appears, or your car is behaving differently, contact us to discuss a diagnostic check. We’ll help establish what checks are appropriate for your vehicle.

Tyre care
for safer journeys

Tyres are the only part of your vehicle in contact with the road, so their condition matters for grip, braking and handling. We can help check your tyres and discuss repair or replacement options for your vehicle.

For cars in the UK, the legal minimum tread depth is 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tread and around the full circumference. Worn or damaged tyres can affect safety, especially on wet roads, so check them regularly and seek advice if you spot cuts, bulges or uneven wear.

Tyre pressures should follow the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendation. Check your handbook or the vehicle’s pressure label for the correct figures.
