Wet belt to timing chain upgrade

The 1.2 PureTech petrol engine used across Peugeot, Citroën and Vauxhall models has a wet timing belt with a reputation for early wear. We can replace it with a timing chain conversion, so you're not facing the same belt problem again.

Vehicles we see most

  • Peugeot 208, 2008, 308, 3008 (1.2 PureTech)
  • Citroën C3, C3 Aircross, C4, C5 Aircross (1.2 PureTech)
  • Vauxhall Corsa, Mokka, Crossland, Grandland (1.2 Turbo / PureTech)

Why upgrade

  • Chain runs for much longer than a wet belt
  • Stops belt debris blocking the oil pick-up
  • One job instead of repeat belt changes
  • Oil and filter changed to the correct spec at the same time

What's included

  • Full timing chain conversion kit
  • Oil pick-up and sump check, cleaned where needed
  • Fresh oil and filter
  • Fault code check and road test
