Craigie is a settled residential suburb stretching south of the centre toward Cherrybank, a grid of terraces and bungalows where the daily run is the school drop and a trip to the shops on the Glasgow Road. Those clipped, low-speed journeys suit a Vauxhall Corsa or Peugeot 208 PureTech badly, since the engine seldom reaches full temperature. The wet cambelt pays the price. Worth catching before the oil pump suffers for it.
Areas our Craigie specialists cover: Cherrybank, Friarton, Moncreiffe, Needless Road, Craigie Knowes, Glasgow Road, Bellwood — and the wider Perth area.
Repeated short suburban runs around Cherrybank never let the PureTech oil heat through, so the oil-bathed wet belt hardens and crumbles ahead of schedule.
