Steph NewburyGuestTonyGuestKeith GoodenHostYou were recently asked about the Ford Transit wet belt, and your clip apparently has had hundreds of thousands of views, and you've also received lots of negative comments.

And the oil means that the belt degrades and blocks the oil strainer, creating low oil pressure in the engine, and then the potential for engine damage.

I think they're a bit of a bizarre invention, but they're cost effective, the engine's quieter, and it means lower emissions, so you can understand why a manufacturer does it.

Being serviced regularly is really important, with absolutely the right oil is critical, and replacing them ahead of time, I think, is key.

But what about if it's after a third party warranty, like one from Warranty Solutions Group? I asked Steph, the group director of Warranty Solutions Group, her view.
