Someone said I should check my cam follower at 30k miles. What's the easiest way to do this? And, what am I looking for?
thanks.:yikes:

If you're still rocking the R32 as your profile shows then you don't have a cam follower issue to worry about. :thumbsup:

Yes, really. Unless I'm just completely oblivious 2.0 FSI motors are the only ones with a poorly designed cam follower. The 2.0 TSI and R32 don't have this issue.

x2. OP has nothing to worry about.

also for us FSI people, there is an extended warrantee coverage over our cams, unless of course you're using an APR hpfp, etc.
