The man who designed the wet belt system is the grandson of the man who decided flat roofs were a good idea in rain soaked England.
lol true
The man who'd engineered this abomination is not the problem. The man who'd approved it is.
You win.
I think it's a French design... Probably likes watching other men with his wife as well, presuming he has one.
@@850r2 perhaps his grandad invented French plumbing
I'm so glad I got out of the motor trade over 20 years ago so I never had to work on garbage like this. Respect young man!
I agree 200%!
Young man can work absolutely better on this motor than granpa
@@stefano0000Why; because he has no choice, Grandpa was smarter he got out.
How can they really design worse things ??lol
I think the parts companies paid them to do it lol🍺
same here, respect guys !
Far too many people going to university and driving laptops , we need far more real skills like this lad 😊
It’s nice to see a young lad trained up to do be a mechanic who looks good at is job instead of us old guys 👍
Learning never stops, if it does you stop being effective.
Youngsters ? Good on this lad. . at 73 I still do a bit .but I am frustrated at the youth of today . One lad I offered to show some basics whilst waiting to go to uni ?? But his father wouldn't let him . Said his son was too clever to do dirty dirt work . But his ex wife had a nice pair that he had paid for and I was playing with them .
Apart from the odd item that might be an improvement on order cars. Today's cars appear to be built to break down and more drama to work on. You need to strip out several parts to get to the part that needs fixing. So you need to take it to a garage, who can't do it until two weeks time. Every part has to be electronically logged into the ICU.Another corporate money spinner. In fact, it seems that everything built these days has a short shelf life.
Been an engineer all my working life , now retired,
I honestly can’t believe someone designed this wet belt system.
Then other manufacturers copied it 🤦♂️.
My mate bought one of the first ford transit’s with the wet belt engine.
He thought it was the best thing since sliced bread ,now agrees with me what an absolute idiotic design.
Nice video fella great to see someone who actually knows what he’s doing.
Oil and rubber not making good bed fellows, who''d of thought it
Its actually not a bad idea in certain scenarios. I have a 20 year old lawn mower with a wet belt. Never failed and ive never heard of one failing. The oil and rubber mix just fine in thst scenario. Same with the oil pump on my vw tdi that runs off a wet belt. It can be done correctly
@@nsoper19
Watched a video the other week a company owner had a fleet of Transit vans which are looked after as per manufacturers service schedule,
At the moment they have 5 vans in their yard with failed engines fords have washed their hands of them leaving the owner to foot the bill on repairs,
Some vans have done high mileage but one failed at 25000 miles
Which she said they are not going to repair them
They are going to change their whole fleet to a manufacturer that doesn’t use the wet belt engines.
She said that in last few years she has spent 1.5 million pounds on ford vans.
And fords don’t want to help her.
That’s disgusting in my opinion selling something not fit for purpose and expecting the customer to pay.
@Paul-pb3vq yes, ford (and PSA) has done a very poor job of the wet belt in their engine. It clearly isn't fit for purpose.
But a wet belt under less stress and tension can be perfectly reliable
I see all these comments saying how good this idea is or like one person mentioned his mower. in my day we was told never to get oil on the timing belt. Now they stuff it in the engine and if anything goes wrong the manufacturers dont want to warranty it, that itself says they know it means new engine.
I mean think of the logic if any mechanic has changed a normal timing belt, the dust bits of fabric pieces of rubber all these break away over 1000s of miles. You only have to look in a timing belt cover. Well now all that crud is in your engine do you think its ok for all this to be in the oil ways. probably better running without an air filter least that dont get in oil galleries.
Plus I watched this person change a wet belt on a transit, he had to buy so many new parts and whos footing the bill. An they say new cars are better for the enviroment, not a chance, these aint going to be on the road in few 100k or 20 plus years later.
And now to my main point, oil filters pick up pipe strainers sumps timing cover are all new parts needed, BUT what about the small parts that have passed through the dust or sludge pumped through into the small oil ways to big ends or camshafts. Did they get cleaned out because if not its only a matter of time before its a catastrophic failure.
No wonder the prices of transits and other wet belt vehicles are crashing
Nice to see a young lad with so much enthusiasm for his job, Not many of these around these days 👍💪
Agree, he was impressive & he'll go far.
47000mls and that belt was about to break at any time.
Wtf thought putting a rubber belt in hot oil was a good idea?
How do you know? There’s loads of smart young people about.
On the other end of the rope, you can see why people are NOT interested in getting involved in the trade. I've done machinery since the mid 60s and I'm SOOO glad I don't have to navigate this pure garbage. There is NO REASON ON EARTH why this has to be so complicated. The easiest solution is to widespread this info and either have the car makers do better of make them go out of business. It's funny how car owners laugh at people who ride mass transit. Who's laughing now! Bicycle riders in Amsterdam are probably feeling better and better every day when they see this nightmare from other people's cars.
@@tardeliesmagic He is like a young version of RainmanRay in Florida.
3 cylinder Peugeot with a wet belt, doesn't get much worse than that!
Well done, job done correctly👍
I miss my three cilinder. My new four-banger has a lot less low end power.
@@stalincat2457😂
Try Ford's wet belt engines.
First issue its a Peugeot.
GM is also making engines with wet belts too. Will see how long will these last.
That young mechanic very proffesional he could work on my car any day.
I'm not sure whether this fella is a mechanic or a surgeon.
He's at the top of his game.
Contentious, great camera presence and a thoroughly enjoyable watch.
Pay him in gold bars !
Thank you 😊👍
WELL SAID 💯💯💯💯
I am really glad I'm a retired mechanic......top marks to the young bloke. Wet Belts are engineering bastardry!
Bentley it appears didn’t get that memo.
Top job my man, nice to see a fellow tech taking pride in his work
Thank you 😊👍
Blimey, this guy knows his stuff!
When you get your, no doubt, eye-watering bill then you would only have to watch this video to understand. A lot of time, knowledge and skill gone into that job. Very interesting and satisfying
I'm a retired mechanic and thank you for this video. I've had Peugeot's or Citroens for years. I have a 3 year old 3008SUV 12oo engine, I'm thinking of buying an OLD car so I can keep fixing it on my own. I could do this job, but not nice without a ramp.🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍
Really good technician, so confident and great methodical workmanship.
Company should be proud of him.
Great video guys 👍
Crazy how much shit has to come off just for a belt, great video
Thank you 😊👍
That's nothing , trying working on a Jaguar !
Yes... bonkers for something that just won't last
As a retired vehicle tech it was nice seeing this a lot younger than me vehicle tech going about the job with knowledge, Precision and cleanliness 👌
Thank you for watching 😊👍
wow, a workshop that is well lit, clean, and doesn't look like a cave from prehistory!
I've changed clutches and a drive belt or two in my driveway no problem, but this takes car repairs to a different level.
They are actually really easy to do. Book time is less than 3hrs.
Hats off to you, we need more mechanics like yourself 👏👏
Thank you 😊👍
Great respect to your trade. Many people think repairing a car is straightforward and moan at high repair costs, but this highlights the complex nature of modern vehicles .
Thank you 😊👍
Give that man a pay rise! Cracking work. 👍
Thank you 😊👍
@@thecareditionltd Pay him more 😃
Own any car with a 3 pot and a wet belt, you’re gonna get a problem sooner or later! Hats off to you though young man-a credit to the industry! 👍🏻👊🏻👌🏻
What a job! Great work there bro. Im sure what bit of emissions a wet belt is supposed to save is easily offset by the extra oil changes and the manufacture of all the parts they need to replace on a regular basis, not forgetting all the ruined engines caused by them!
There NOT meant for emissions there meant to fleece customers & get cars off the road for Battery bollox milk floats !!
And extra gaskets and increased fuel burnt by lorries delivery more parts...
I was watching a program the other day and Chinese passenger vehicles (in Chinese) don't have emissions systems fitted to them, other than heavy diesels, buses, lorries etc.
Yeah spot on!
Would love to have my car worked on by someone like this. Proper knowledgeable, fast and efficient.
Dam, thats alot of work!!
The wet belt issue on these is the sole reason I chose to get something else. I was about ready to put the cash on the desk for one of these a few years back, and then came across this issue online, and then cames across the same issue reported hundreds of times more.
Avoid like the plague 😊
Me too. Got rid of a 1.0 ecoboost fiesta with 69000 on the clock and almost made the mistake of getting a 1.2 208. Went for a Mazda 2 instead. 😂
You are at the Top of your Game Fella. A good Mechanic these days is like Rocking Horse Shite.Hard to find!
I've watched this young chap swap the wet belt out on a Transit very skilled and very conscientious ⭐ Not something you see everywhere
Top bloke 👍
Regards Captain Chunk 🏴☠️
Thank you 😊👍
outstanding to watch this. A man that knows his job inside out and loves it .....
Who would be a mechanic now....I worked on my own cars years ago (I could remove the gearbox and clutch in my Ford with like a 10mm and 13mm spanner :D) but this is next level .......that chap makes it look so easy .....respect
This complicated! And not a Lambo or Koenigsegg... Me deepest admiration for Yr patience and in depth tutorial. I realize that ol' school ICE:s is the way to go. Everything newer than say 2010 is a Nightmare to fix 😬 Thxalot for sharing 👍
A mechanic mate of mine says he has never seen so many engine failures in recent times on fairly modern cars. They are building in obsolescence from day one of ownership.
Yep pretty much every new car sucks now complete scam going on by the motor vehicle industry
The problem is actually not the rubber and the oil. The problem is the ethanol in the fuel. Especially during short trips and with engine management systems that start/stop the engine and allow immediate power, unburnt ethanol sticks to the cylinder liners and finds its way past the piston rings and into the oil. Rubber dissolves in ethanol. So not only the belt will dissolve, but also rubber gaskets, hoses, etc. Anything rubber will transform into the goo that shows here in 2:18 by only traces of ethanol.
Peugeot designed this engine (around 2010) before the mixing of ethanol in petrol became required by law. Without the ethanol in the fuel (by only using Shell Pura, for instance) there is no problem at all and the belt is silent, very long lasting and energy efficient. Actually an excellent engine.
The disturbing thing is that, while the PSA engine department warned about this problem ever since the introduction of the ethanol, the PSA (Stellantis) top management kept on using this design regardless, causing immense warrantee issues and ruining the reputation of the brand.
This is the most important comment and explains the sad story. Thank you.
Thanks for this insight
I never knew this
Oil and heat has killed rubber on engines since forever, since before they even invented ethanol. So I'm sorry you're not right.
@@goclunkerI agree, the amount of ethanol that is in gasoline is already a small amount. And even if that manages to go into your oil supply is very minimal. I think its rather the oil that turns to acidic or/and the ether that eats on the outer layer of the belt. Ethanol is really not that agressive.
Engineered long after ethanol was used in fuels
Im no chemist but 30 years as a mechanic, I’d never consider a wet belt as an option in any engine and am baffled some manufacturers thought it was worthwhile, got to disassemble and clean/replace more parts, pay more labour, for what benefit?
Good to see a well educated young man doing a proper job👍😊
Well done, I enjoyed😮 that. You have a skill to be proud of.
All the best from an old retired mechanic..
True joy to watch this young lad showing and explaining very well how it is done.
🇬🇧 👍🏽 December 2024
I'm normally only ever looking out for older hands when choosing a garage to trust (cos - not dumb enough to use a main dealer for anything more than three years old) - but this chap is inspiringly confident & capable! Very impressed.
Wet belt's the biggest joke ever fitted to 4 wheels
Yes, a sick joke ..
Who's idea was it in the first place I wonder because many have followed 🤔
Scam.....big time.😮
Driving 4 answers has a good explanation on this joke.
@@558vulcanxh The accountants idea no doubt.
Who would have thought that rubber and oil dont mix
Wet belt replacements are gonna be a gold mine 👍 Sucks to own one though.
This by far the best mechanic I have seen on TH-cam. I would never buy one of those cars
So glad I have an old car with a chain and no turbo or DPF to fail.
I'd rather have PSA's wetbelt than a chain on ANY car. Chains barely last longer than belts now.

steel wire wheel on the aluminium engine surfaces, and all that debris and bits of wire wheel goinig into engine, lovely stuff
Wet belt is a dreadful idea but if I had one that needed changed you'd certainly get the job.. Excellent work ! 👍👌
And the dealers wont admit this, and they claim that its not important to pull the sump and check the pickup screen. Shame on them. Good work by you😊
Excellent video, I’m definitely sticking with my Honda for as long as possible. These wet belts are awful!
10 out 10 for your knowledge and work ethics. 👍👍What a shining example you are for the young of today,fair play to you.👍
We all need to get together and bring a joint case against parent company Stellantis.
What about Ford that uses wet belts as well?
Ford thought it was great idea to get it wet 😂
you people really don't get it ? the wet belts and other similar genius stuff it's not only at Stellantis, it's everywhere and it's not them who decided about this, they are just muppets, think about WHY would they do this in first place and you will understand
Great video, you got some presenting talent. This channel should have 100x more subs easily.
Thank you 😊👍
I wish all the mechanics I know where as well trained as you are, far too many lads today don't have the dedication you have to do the job correctly, most would have just put a belt on and maybe took the sump off to clean the oil pick up gauze but wouldn't bother to clean the other gauzes and filters out, ive seen it too many times. Been a mechanic myself 36 years now and cars are getting more and more difficult to work at, gone are the days when doing a timing belt was a few pipes and covers to remove and job was done.
Nice job young un. Keep up the good work.
This guy really knows what he is doing , respect young man ...
great job and great to se a young so good at his job my wife had a vauxhall with same engine wow what a fight I had with vauxhall
@@scotspie501douglas7 in about 1983 Citroen installed rubber timing belts for the first time . They said they never need changing - or at least, they didn’t include changing it in the regular servicing schedule. A lawyer bought one and had it serviced at a Citroen dealer in accordance with the makers instructions. At 60,000 miles the belt snapped and the car needed a new engine. The lawyer refused to pay and took Citroen to court saying he had followed the servicing requirements exactly and could prove it. He won, of course and that was the start of manufacturers requiring cam belts to be changed at 40,000 miles . They have of course since improved cam belts since then and generally if you are prudent you spend £120 having a new belt at 60k miles. When are the wet belt manufacturers going to tell customers to spent the thick end of £2,000 having a new wet belt every 40,000 miles?
Nice job! Well Done!
Just one thing when I remove the water pump I usualy loosen the bolts and push up the pump with a flat screwdriver so to leak the antifreeze out as easy as possible and to avoid the "raining cats and dogs" part :D
Hi 👋🏻 buddy 😊 You make really interesting videos with a good explanation on what’s happening on these wet belts 👍🏻
Thank you for watching 😊👍
Wet timing belt is (I believe a scam) from car/engine manufacturers. I can believe armies of engineers to be so stupid to let this go. This must have been pushed through by someone else than engineers.
Nice job a young man who is very competent at his job, bravo.
You are so lucky to have power tools. When I was a mechanic back in the 70s every bolt nut etc had to be done by hand. Took so long compared to today
You didn’t have so much stuff to unbolt just to get to something like this back in the 70s though, and you certainly didn’t have wet belts
@ True but they were really badly built and rust was a major problem. We worked to a book time that the job was supposed to take 90% of the time you had no chance
Top video chap and nice work!
I so wanted a Ranger Raptor but who in their right mind would buy a car with a wet belt engine? I won't even buy one with a cam belt, nothing but chains in all the cars we own!
That was depressing. All that for a simple timing belt change… at 47k. Note to self, avoid all cars with a wet belt like the plague.
I agree with you problem is so Many are doing it now
Just stick to older cars you can still find plenty in good condition and they're much better built my Audi A6 was on 160 thousand miles over 20 years old and still done a job no problem at all.
Was looking at a new second hand car to replace our second car. Was looking at the 4-5 year age range and no kidding, 80% of em have wet belts and the ones that don't are gas guzzlers. So we went for an electric instead, the limited range isn't much of an issue for our second car as we hardly do more than 50km/day with it.
Very professional video. Top work.
When you think about it, they designed a tool to check the width of the wet belt, and well oil and rubber, a marriage made in ? That is a great video, just so interesting to see these things apart, and how wrong some manufacture's can get it. I look forward to more content from you...
Thank you 😊👍
My VW Golf 1.6tdi changed cam belt at 100k still looked ok, changed oil every 7K mile with 5w30 to VW 504/507 - sold it at 170k miles all original turbo, alternator/starter/turbo/egr. Changed Cam belt at 160k due to leaky water pump. Sold it due to ULEZ. - lots of long runs + regular oil and filter/air filter and fuel filters great for durability. Car battery lasted 10 years.
Amazing work young man. It is great watching this work.
Well done You make it look so easy I've been a mechanic all my working life I'm 66 now and just wouldn't attempt this job My hearts not in it anymore Do you know how to fit points and adjust the dwell angle ? Great to watch you I'm happy a new breed of mechanic is coming along 👍👍
Similar to you, only I got out of the trade over 20 years ago. Happy to pass the baton on!
Same age and profession as you........... Mechanics these days are just parts fitters, I had to grind valves and seats, machine generator armatures, make my own "special tools", diagnose faults without plug in diagnostic machines etc............. Different world back then............. "Automotive Engineer" is the title on my trade cert............
I'm so disgruntled with the car trade now Glad I'm nearly out of it
All this work on a basically brand new car is crazy. 75,000km and 7 years is still a new car and there is no way it can require this much maintenance and have these problems. But at least we know what cars to avoid.
Wow, doing a proper job! Would 100% trust you.
Inspected one the other day, wet belt was clearly splitting, car had only done 20k!
Your talent is unreal ❤
Excellent mechanic, you'll go far in life.
Taking almost the whole engine apart to replace timing belt. A perfect video to demonstrate why one should avoid buying or owning a 3008.
Had a 2018 C3 with the 1.2 Puretech. Biggest piece of crap ever engineered. Which is a shame, since the car itself was quite decent.
Doesn't really matter how well you treat it, those things are built to self destruct.
Had mine's wet belt replaced at 74000kms and it was nearly destroyed. Always changed the oil at roughly 7000km intervals, quality fuel, all that crap. The engine and oil light started lighting up right after the first maintenance at Citroen and they never EVER managed to fix it, they simply added more oil (always charged me for each visit too). After the belt replacement, the engine started to eat oil like crazy. Lastly the heat exchanger blew up ending up mixing oil with the coolant. Got it fixed and finally stopped being an idiot trying to maintain that money pit and ended up "trading" it for a 2023 hybrid Corolla.
When the consumer ends up being a tester for your development mistakes, you're done. The wet belt type was changed 3 times already, same story with the oil (went from 0w-30 to 0w-20, and now it seems they are changing it to 5w-30). That's enough for me Stellantis, thanks.
My 308 1.2 manual said 7 years if used for short journeys, 10 years if used for long ones. I did both!
At 7 years my annual service at Peugeot (full main dealer service history at original dealer) was 500 quid instead of 230. Yep, that is all the belt kit and fitting was at the main dealer.
These are good performer engines, and you can inspect the belt through the oil filler. The belts should not fail just because they are in oil.
They fail because they are in oil. For 100 years, it's been said not to mix rubber and oil. Yet manufacturers was like hold my beer. Now they are reaping the bad design. They was nothing wrong with a dry timing belt.
You're lucky my 308 failed at 40.000 miles. Wet belt got slowly disintegrated, blocked oil pick up. Starved engine from oil. Write off.
Drive electric now. Not much to go wrong here, battery is warranted to 96.000 miles still getting me double the lifespan in the worst case scenario. Once burned twice shy.
Just look anywhere online and you’ll see the same thing repeating over and over again. Rubber and oil do not mix.
You’ll be lucky if the only thing destroyed is the belt.
Great video- Kudos to you sir. Certainly influences my next choice of car.
The chap who designed the wet belt was the same who put plastic in a ford power shift auto box ,,,😮,
Great job and explanation. Thanks!❤
Thank you 😊👍
Great work! Your car knowledge is ace ! Such a lengthy process in changing a wet belt for car! Cheers !
Thank you 😊👍
Good work fella. It is of course the same engine as used in the current Vauxhall Corsa. We have gone backwards. I could change a cambelt on it's predecessor the Vauxhall Nova (Corsa A) OHC in 20 minutes, a simple job. A clutch was possible in an hour. Simple, well designed, good performing engines.
Great job as always, good to different manufacturers on the channel.
Thank you 😊👍
That's why I still drive 2001 Golf MK4 with 74KW TDI engine. Bought in 2017 for 2500 EUR and already did 102K kilometers (63K miles) with it - more than most new cars given warranty.
No spying GSM modules, no corporate parasites with activation servers and subscriptions, just fairly priced parts and mechanics to fix anything.
Timing belt replacement with work, parts and consumables was 470 EUR in 2024. Changing oil, engine and cabin air filters costs me 90-100 EUR all round. Small fixes like changing bulbs or installing air / cabin filters I do myself, 6 EUR for headlight H7 bulb and good to go in 10 minutes.
And car is quite efficient - burns 5 liters per 100 kilometers (47mpg) on the highway, and 7 liters (33mpg) in the city with many hills and short trips. When time comes I will replace it with new car only, because used cars manufactured after 2010 often are more rusty than mine and have tons of outdated electronics which never ages well.
Still for the life of me can’t figure out why they thought wet belts would be a good idea
So your car breaks faster, and you have to buy a new one. Fairly simple capitalism cycles really.
@@flavoursonlysocialist hold my Trabant!
@@flavoursonly True. Ford were the first to do away with grease nipples, gearbox and rear axle drain plugs, replaceable light bulbs, you name it. They will be the first with welded down bonnets. Come back here in ten years and tell me I was right. So, that means that your £30,000 cost of a new car will be scrap in five years. £6,000 a year running costs on top of tax, insurance and servicing.
@@gasgas2689 Ford went back to a chain on the 2018 (newer shape) Focus onwards at least.
Great workmanship and super video....
Wet belt bad idea...
10 out of 10 young man. Well done you. There's one thing for sure, you will have LOADS of friends in your life. Some will use you. GO STEADY.
What an amazing lad, glad i found this 😀
You make look easy bud
Nice work 👌
Thank you 😊👍
I was looking at a 3008 just before Christmas but it was the GT model on a 21 plate. Id now be interested to know if all 3008's are problematic? Just love watching stuff like this and great work here. Thank you
Thank you 😊👍
I keep hearing it's lack of regular 12 monthly oil change that affects the belt .
Also maybe good idea ( especially on short journeys) to turn off auto stop start ,so engine stays warm .
Peugot say change belt at 65000 miles if it has had regular 12 month oil changes.
Nice work 👍👍👍
Thank you 😊👍
Vag have been using wet belts for years on oil pumps. It's a good thing more work for us mechanics.
Hey, it's great video you made and i can really follow up even i am not a mechanic but hands on person. Peugeot/citroen must throw away that engines. they must stick to 1.6 only especially the THP cause we know they are from BMW and new vti 1.2 in South Africa don't last
Great video , some times the gauze in the oil pump strainer can get dislodged,Citroen say replace the oil pump which means engine out and only six hours to do it under warranty .keep up the good work .
First time watching,impressive video & in depth commentary young man,nice information too.
Thank you for watching 😊👍
Long oil change intervals, short journeys and petrol in the oil. In a diesel failed dpf regens putting fuel in oil.
Great job..just not sure about the power wire brush action
Wow!! I'm going to get him to do my one next time, only took thirteen minutes; I'd save a fortune 😂
A lot of cars have a wet belt. Check if it is does or not and if it does DO NOT buy it.
Why do to change oil in time, when you can wait for more things to fail and do everything in one go 😂
I would have used the shop vac to clean that scuttle of all those leaves etc first (just my OCD) tidy piece of work though it has to be said.
Nice video. Worth mentioning that when the oil strainer is clogged and the engine starts to show pressure warnings the wear on the engine is already extensive. Even though you do this job and get in up and running again the engine will start to burn oil due to worn out piston rings. This will only get worse and worse. It's not helped by the fact that many of the Stellantis cars with this engine doesn't have an oil level sensor so the first warning you get is when the pressure drops due to very low oil level. This of course accelerates the wear on the engine and further increases the oil consumption. The moral of this is if you find out that you have a wet belt engine. Get rid of the car before you loose your investment.
Latest release 1.2 have now been replaced with a chain
A retrofit kit is now also available for older models with wet belts to replace it with a chain kit and modified cam sprockets with narrower tooth profile to fit a chain to them
a lot of knowledge and confidence from someone so young (compared to me!).. subbed !
Thank you 😊👍
