I live in northern NJ ,I have a 2006 vw jetta tdi 5 spd manual with 97000 miles,I was getting ready to do the timing belt this weekend, I followed DIY procedure on removing the valve cover first to check camshaft ,I just found out that i have the cam lobe wear problem you show on your how to forum. I have not noticed any problems with idle and the car runs fine.I use motul 5w40 every 10k miles. looks like i have to fix that issue before replacing timing belt.
Do you know if the replacement parts fix this issue or can i expect to have to replace camshaft/lifters every 100k miles ?
