Does my Captur have a wet belt?
Ive been told by Halfords my renault capture on 16 plate 0.9 engine has a wet belt , which needs to be done, after phoning around garages are saying no it doesn't have a wet belt . Can you please tell me otherwise just for confirmation its either timing chain or wet belt as price wise to get it repaired is alot of difference! And roughly how much should i be looking to pay for tiiming chain and /or wet belt change Thank you
Our answer:
Hi Michelle,
That engine has a timing chain, not a timing belt of any kind. But the timing chain does not have a set replacement schedule. It is designed for the life of the engine, so unless a mechanic diagnoses some problem with it you don't need to think about changing it at all.
