Why we ask you to complete this
A wet-belt replacement repairs the belt system. It cannot retrospectively repair internal damage that may already have occurred because of previous oil starvation, contamination, overheating, poor maintenance or another mechanical condition.
🛢️
Lubrication risk
Debris or contamination can affect the lubrication system. An engine can have internal wear before a belt replacement is carried out.
🔍
Latent damage
A normal wet-belt replacement is not a complete internal-engine strip-down or bearing inspection, so some pre-existing damage may not be detectable.
🌡️
Overheating history
Previous overheating, coolant loss or lubrication problems can cause independent engine damage even if the vehicle is still running.
📋
Service history matters
Missing or overdue servicing, uncertain oil specification and previous engine repairs can increase the level of technical uncertainty.

Important: Completing this questionnaire is not a waiver of your legal rights. It records the history known to you, explains the scope and limitations of the wet-belt service and allows TAC to identify vehicles that may require additional investigation.
