2.0 TFSI Cam Follower Replacement Made Easy
✅ Easy Replacement of Fuel Pump Cam Follower in Audi 2.0 TFSI (A6 C6)
🔧🚗 Is your Audi A6 C6 2.0 TFSI in need of a cam follower replacement? Don't wait until it's too late! A worn cam follower can lead to severe damage to the camshaft and beyond.
👉 Better Safe Than Sorry:
Experts recommend replacing the cam follower every 30,000 km or with every other oil change. This simple precaution can save you from costly repairs down the line.
🛠️ Tools You'll Need:
- 13mm Wrench
- 17mm Wrench
- T30 Torx
- Tool for squeezing metal clamp on rubber hose beneath fuel pump
- Pointy tool for releasing fuel pressure & removing fuel pump seal
- Cloth for cleaning
🔋 Safety First: Before you start, disconnect the car battery. In the Audi A6 C6, the fuel pump activates every time the driver's door opens – a precaution worth taking!
💡 Pro Tips:
- Lubricate the new cam follower with oil or assembly lube for smoother installation.
- Apply oil to the new fuel pump seal before fitting. Handle it gently to avoid damage during fuel pump reinstallation.
- Be cautious when reattaching the metal fuel line to the pump. The brass valve is delicate, and excessive force can strip the threads, risking fuel leaks.
