How to change Fuel Pump Cam Follower on 2.0 TFSi
aarondsg:
Sorry I meant as in the part that fails to prevent it is only 30 meant to say follower!/tappet
Typo error
Hootz:
Did this today thanks for the guide.
I didn't do TDC. Checked, double checked and checked everything again.
Still concerned I haven't done it right but it starts and drives well with no fuel leaking from the pump.
Car is an ed30 with 74k, stage 1 for 6k. Follower is showing wear and beginning to crack in the coating, coating is also worn off in centre.
Fingers crossed car continues to perform well.
vRS Carl:
TDC is not an absolute necessity. It's just advised to enable easy refitting without putting pressure on the piston as it is refitted.
TurboHatchback:
I inspected mine last Thursday and it was wearing normally and all seemed fine :happy2:. I'm going to change it anyway for peace of mind, a new one is on order and should be picked up this week to be done with its next service.
Jkay:
Done this this morning. Just under 80k on the clock and only small wear but changed it and the 'O' ring as well.
Thanks for the guide, pictures make a big difference when tackling these sort of things. :happy2:
