increased cam follower wear on uprated pump

<< < (2/3) > >>

GrayMK5GTI:
Uprated pump does increase follower wear for sure. From what I've read, switching to Millers Nanodrive oil pretty much eliminates follower wear anyway  :surprised:

Even so, I'd swap the follower every 20,000 miles to be on the safe side. The yanks seem to get through followers much quicker than us in the uk

Madone:
Thanks Gray, so a new follower with each oil change at 10k should be good to go ?

Yeah, plenty safe with that  :happy2:

Gti_Mad:
Statlers run this conversion on there demo mk6 R,

Hopefully @Hurdy can shed some light on this

Markyed30:
I changed mine 3 weeks ago after running 11k miles with autotech internals and using nanotech not a mark and as new I changed it anyway and will prob change it every 20k from now on
