HI!

Daily car, Project car, My only car, My learning car, My halflife, My escape, My nemesis, My reliable best friend is SICK!
Passat 1.9 tdi BXE/BKC - 400.000km+
PD105 Engine
PD130 Injectors
PD150 Turbo
Egr removed
Downpipe 3"
2.5" double silencer exhaust¨ (ALU first then Stainless steel)
k&n vw sport intake
etc etc.

After expected time and wear it seems 1 on my lifter broke or my Cam worn over.
Thuck Thuck thru air filter and sounds like a Subaru Boxer when revving.
90% sure its lifters or cam, havent opened but it has gone 400.000 so maybe its time anyways.
Noticed the sound immediately in the middle of a step uphill, and on top i arrived at my buddy's and said this sounds weird, just started after i went up this hill, maybe its time.. XDXD

SO ON for my Question!

Talking before i do any more upgrades!
Should i replace with OEM Cam or Upgrade 250/260 or 272 Cam?
Do i lose power with 272?
What do i need to do in Tune with current setup? do i gain power with same tune? or lose?

My plan forward is gt1856vklr ball bearing and the size firad nozzeles i need for that.
Does that change anything regarding the tune with upgraded Cam?

I Want Full Power and Tourque All the way from Take off to upper speeds, Wheel spin etc, more focus on lower rpm and tourque grab and sudden power, not high speeds or drag race xD

Hello, a new golf 5/ caddy 2.0SDI Camshaft should do the trick for you.
