Have you been noticing poor performance or a noisy engine in your VW? If you have, you are likely dealing with faulty hydraulic lifters and cam followers. Your VW’s hydraulic lifter and cam followers are crucial to the engine’s performance. These essential components ensure proper valve actuation and timing. The hydraulic lifters or tappets transmit your VW’s motion from the camshaft to the engine valves. It links the valves and the camshaft lobes, ensuring they open and close precisely. This allows the right amount of fuel and air mixture into the combustion chambers. Also, it facilitates the expelling of exhaust gases.

On the other hand, the cam followers or valve followers ride on the camshaft lobes. These vital components follow the camshaft’s contours to translate its rotational movements into vertical movements. They push against the valves to open them against the force of valve springs.

Your VW’s cam followers and hydraulic lifters ensure proper valve timing. This enhances engine performance and efficiency.
