How to change Fuel Pump Cam Follower on 2.0 TFSi
KieranED30:
Cheers, that's what I'll do & do I oil the Inside and outside or just ouside?

Inside and out. I dipped mine in engine oil. The 4 holes are for lubrication.

Nice one I'll be doing this when I finish work in a hour can't wait to see what mines like now I'll post a pic of I have time!

New follower on the right. Last image shows the camshaft lobe, you can see some marks, but can't feel them. Should be fine.
Not sure exactly how many miles the follower has done, but it could be original, as the gasket was black, the replacement gasket on the HPFP is light blue. I'll probably check it every other service. Car will get annual oil and filter changes, I do about 7k miles a year max.

All done :jumping: wind blew one of the t30 torque screws down the back of the engine took me 2 hours to find it with all sortes of tools grabber magnets and everything's or very annoyed even rang VW for a new one but they didn't stock them; I finally found it!
Took 20 mins if that if I take away the screw/bolt rinding grrrrr
