CAM FOLLOWER
The cam follower in the EA113 TFSI engine wears down over time due to constant contact with the high-pressure fuel pump (HPFP). Replacing it on time is essential to:
*Prevent HPFP and Camshaft Damage – A worn cam follower can cause metal-on-metal contact, leading to costly repairs.
*Maintain Proper Fuel Pressure – Ensures efficient fuel delivery, preventing misfires and performance issues.
*Avoid Metal Debris in the Engine – A damaged follower can break apart, contaminating the engine with metal particles.
*Extend Engine and Fuel Pump Life – Regular replacement keeps the system running smoothly and prevents major failures.
Failing to replace it can result in fuel pump failure, camshaft wear, and potential engine damage. It’s recommended to inspect and replace it every 30,000–50,000 kilometers for optimal performance and reliability.
