A must-have preventative maintenance item for all EA113 2.0 TFSI engines. The cam follower is a known wear component that sits between the high-pressure fuel pump and intake camshaft. Failure to replace a worn cam follower can result in costly damage to the high-pressure fuel pump, camshaft, and fuel system components.

Why Replace the Cam Follower?
The EA113 cam follower is a wear item that gradually deteriorates with use. Regular inspection and replacement can help prevent excessive wear to the camshaft and high-pressure fuel pump, avoiding expensive repairs and downtime.
Recommended Service Intervals
| Vehicle Setup | Inspection / Replacement Interval |
|---|---|
| Tuned Vehicles | Every 15,000 – 22,500 km |
| Stock Vehicles | Every 30,000 – 45,000 km |
General Recommendation: Replace or inspect the cam follower at least every third engine service, or sooner on heavily modified vehicles.
Important Note
A worn-through cam follower can cause severe damage to the high-pressure fuel pump and intake camshaft. Regular maintenance is significantly cheaper than replacing major fuel system components.
