2L CU rebuild, camshaft needed.
Posted: 14 Apr 2026, 18:43
Eventually after pushing on with an engine that had several issues, I have taken the plunge into rebuilding it. I had expected to find a poorly top end, but was shocked to find a very badly worn camshaft. My plan is to replace the cam and lifters, ideally hydraulic. But supply is not straight forward. VW Heritage do one, but with a twelve week delivery time! Does anybody have knowledge of a faster turn around? I would rather not change to solid lifters, but I do realise that cams are more available and a greater choice.
