Valvetrain pic 2002 Golf TDI with 195k.

[Audios]

Was almost hoping to see a little scoring or wear on the cams or lifters to account for the higher iron on my last report, but it all looks pretty decent. May swap it out for a Colt stage 2 and coated lifters at the next timing belt change, but still have a few years.

wear on the cams? What engine do you think you have? a 2004+ BEW?

Since it's BITOG I do have to ask what oil and OCI have been used...

Would like to see what your intake looks like..

HDEO keeps them that way, looks great!

Ive mostly used M1 TDT 5/40 for 5k intervals, I did one or two with T6. Trying Motorcraft HDEO 10/30 for this run. Bought the car at 150, previous owner probably did 10k. Intake was cooked clean right when I got it, along with timing belt, water pump etc, suspension, glass headlight lenses, nozzles and adjusted injection quantity to account. We absolutely love this little car, 47 mpg on mostly highway tanks.

At 200k things wear, Ive seen lifters wear and score cams on these as well, especially with poor maintenance.
