At Jon's Autos, we love the Peugeot/Citroen/Vauxhall 1.2 turbo and non turbo Stellantis engines. We are a specialist in wet belt replacement on these engines, and have all the dealer tooling. These engines get a bad reputation for the wet belts failing and degrading. Most of this is due to garages not servicing them with the correct stelantis 5w30 oil. I have seen the belts totally de grade and break up as early as 40k miles due to poor servicing. If they are serviced correctly with the correct oil every 12months or 10k I've seen them last as long as 60k+ but I would always recommend getting the belts replaced at 60k miles for maximum reliability. Give us a shout if your wet belt is due for replacement ๐
