Genuine Ford Complete Wet Belt Replacement Service by OCM | Fiesta 1.0l Ecoboost
TECHNICAL DATA
Service Description: Ford 1.0L EcoBoost Engine Wet Belt Replacement Package
The Ford 1.0L EcoBoost engine is susceptible to a known mechanical failure mode involving the degradation of the internal "wet" timing and oil pump drive belts. Operating within the engine oil, these belts are prone to surface delimitation over time due to heat cycles and oil contamination.
If left unaddressed, belt degradation can lead to critical engine damage. Debris from the belt coating can obstruct the oil pump pick-up strainer, resulting in oil starvation. The earliest indicator of this issue is often the illumination of the low oil pressure warning light.
To mitigate this risk and restore engine integrity, we offer a comprehensive replacement package utilising Genuine Ford Parts and Lubricants:

Important Operational Note:
Due to the extensive labour involved in accessing the wet belt system (including engine support and front-end disassembly), the vehicle may be required to remain on-site overnight to ensure the work is completed to the highest standard.
OC Motorsport cannot stress the importance of keeping up with your annual maintenance, we highly recommend the oil and filter are replaced ever 5 - 6,000 miles and at least once per year if you do not cover the mileage. If this level of servicing is maintained and not skipped or compromised we have known multiple cases of the wet belt easily surpassing 100,000 miles without failure.
