Peugeot Citroen 1.2 PureTech Wet Belt. Replaced in Slough
The PSA 1.2 PureTech turbo, fitted in certain Peugeots, Citroens, DS, Vauxhalls and Opels around Slough, has a wet belt in some engine variants with an unhappy reputation. Belt material breaks down into the oil, blocks the strainer, kills the oil pump, and the engine quickly follows. We see PureTech wet belt jobs through our Berkshire workshop regularly.
Stellantis has finally accepted the problem and revised intervals down. Our practical guidance for the EB2DT and EB2ADT 1.2 PureTech is replace by 75,000 miles or 6 years, or earlier with any rough running, oil smell or low oil level. Once symptoms start, the clock is already ticking on the engine.

How we do the PureTech wet belt at our Slough workshop
Front end stripped, sump down, full inspection. The oil pickup strainer tells the story. Clean strainer means the engine is in good shape and the belt has been changed in time. Sludge and rubber on the strainer means the engine has already been damaged and we will have an honest conversation about repair versus replacement.
On a healthy engine we fit the full PSA-spec kit: new wet belt, oil pump, tensioner and idler, oil pickup pipe, sump gasket and a complete oil and filter change with the correct PSA-approved 0W-30 or 5W-30. Refit, time the engine, run up, leak check and road test through Slough. Job done properly, the car gets another 75,000 trouble-free miles.
Warning signs a 1.2 PureTech wet belt is failing
- Strong smell of oil from the engine bay. the breather and crank seal often start weeping before the belt fails. Investigate immediately
- Oil level dropping noticeably between services. PureTech engines are known consumers, but sudden change means trouble
- Rattle on cold start that clears after 5-10 seconds. oil pressure is slow to build because the pickup is restricted
- Check engine or oil light. stop driving. We will recover from the Slough area if needed
- Service history shows no belt change at 60-70k. you are overdue. Book it now
