Jodyhoare:
Here is the exhaust note, with no missfire and the cam chain tensioner

Let's hope everything is ok, I managed to get away with it when I had a similar issue.

Is that a Laser Blue 05 I see? It doesn't happen to have a beige / cream interior does it? Still trying to find one like mine  :innocent:

Jodyhoare:
It is. Black leather in this one though! Lol

What was your issue? Oil pickup?

breeze:
I’ve just re-read your post and it looks like the pieces you were talking about were from the rocker cover gasket.

You could consider doing just the oil pickup, putting back together with new gasket and seeing what it sounds like. That would enable you to check the timing adjustment with VCDS too.

Replacing head is a bigger job and even replacing the chain carries some risk (rounded bolt). Chain will also require you to buy tools.

That's close enough, my favourite colour MK5 I must say  :grin:

No, chain tensioner failed. Got away with it somehow, no bent valves and nothing out of the ordinary after inspection. I won't say what the speed was when it failed but it was a considerable amount and a lot of diesel noises!  :signLOL:
