Hi all, new to this group so thanks for the add.
I'm looking at a 2018 Grandland X 1.5 diesel, I've heard conflicting information on whether the diesels have a standard or 'wet' cambelt. Lots of horror stories about the wet belts so I was hoping to avoid ;)

Thanks in advance.

I was led to believe its a dry belt that drives a cam chain on the diesel 1.5 DV5 ?
