Hello All,
I have a 2006 Jetta TDI with 140K. Over the last few months it has started to run rougher and lose fuel mileage & performance. After doing some research and hearing about the BRM camshaft problems I decided to check my cam..low and behold, it was worn below the factory corner chamfer on 2 exhaust lobes. Since the majority of the information I have recieved on cam wear has been from myturbodiesel, I decided to register and gain access to the DIY section. Needless to say it will be a great weekend of car repairs...yet again...
I have been performing regular oil changes at 8-10k using Quartz Toal 5W-30; the spec met what PD engine requires (505.01 i believe).
