Question about wet belt...
Being a wet belt in oil why have they in the past been recalled changed because the rubber breaks down, my car is a 2014 with 64000 on the clock it still has original belt but looks shiny does that mean it needs changing , thank you.
Our answer:
Hi Richard,
You've not told us what car you have and a belt being shiny doesn't mean anything on its own. If you have any doubts, you should get the car into a qualified mechanic for them to take a look at it.
