Wet belt questions, answered straight
Why is the dealer quoting £1,800+ for the same job?+
Dealer pricing covers franchise overheads, four-figure hourly labour rates and the assumption you'll pay it. We charge what the work costs plus a fair margin — that's it.
What does the price include?+
Wet belt, tensioner and idlers, oil pump pickup pipe, a full sump clean, fresh manufacturer-spec oil, OE oil filter, all consumables and the labour to do the job properly. No hidden extras.
Is the sump clean an extra?+
No. Every wet belt we replace includes dropping and cleaning the sump as standard — it's the only way to be sure shed belt material isn't left behind to block the oil pump pickup again.
Do you offer payment plans?+
We accept card and bank transfer. For larger jobs we can sometimes split payment across two visits — ask when booking.
