Just replaced the timing chain on my daughters 2.0t (using your videos). I appreciate your straight forward no nonsense advice backed by real world experience. Keep up the GREAT work.

Just took off my cam shaft bridge and the screen was indeed broken! luckily the other half of the screen was stuck in the port on the head and I was able to fish it out. Thanks Naptown Tuner for your excellent videos!

Just got a 2016 A3 for my girlfriend. It has 117k on it. I see water pump leak alot on these. Car was wreakin the front so i have all space to get pump out now. I have seen a ton of housings/ pumps. Which are good. Thanks for just showing the right stuff

[@dionmorrow5271]

Can you tell how old the pump is? I don't want to replace the pump and it's been replaced not to long ago. Doesn't look like valve covers are leaking. Or should I take pump off and replace the gasket? Thanks for any help

[@76henrysingh]

Personally it took alot of time to me to understand bridge mechanism. This is very crucial component but poorly designed or precisely saying not wise fitment to cams. I had a hard time to understand why i am getting noise from cam side when engine heated up. I discovered that this was due to low oil pressure which comes only in drive mode after releasing the pedal and momentarily light flashes. I am having the doubt that oil pump is bit sluggish when transmission is put due to loaded conditions and lack of oil pressure alongwith this bridge design did damage the camshaft lobes. I am still investigating this. Your explanation is really very knowledgeable and deep. Thanks.

[@islamilluminatedd]

Thanks for explaining how to put the cam bridge on. I've been having troubles with it but have not tried cranking the cam back and forth yet. Will give it a try.

[@victorkeith4069]

Nap, I really appreciate the knowledge. Having that notorious " low oil pressure" issue on my stage 2: 2012 audi a4 quattro. Replacing the camshaft bridge, adjustment magnet, and oil adjuster. You've shared sooooo much knowledge on just about EVERY issue with the 2.0t. I APPRECIATE YOU.....

After watching , The intake and exhaust can both get scored I meant to say intake camshaft is more prone to scoring

[@forevertruetome1]

It is my intake that is scored up pretty bad. But thankfully, it is something we can repair without too much pain in the wallet.

What will happen if it is scored?

[@kevinwonsetler3777]

How much resistance should that ball be behind the screen? I removed my screen and ball is springing back but hardly and resistance

Fantastic tutoring. I love your style and appreciate your delivery so much. Keep it up bro.....

[@SirManlyPowers]

It's ironic that the thing supposed to stop debris from clogging up the oil galleys becomes the piece of debris that causes most of the problems. The screen in my cam bridge had popped out. I followed your advice and deleted the remains of it. I didn't find all of the screen, but fortunately(?) I've replaced the head so it's probably stuck in the old head somewhere.

[@joynfan]

great video! I am going to follow it to pop out the screen when I check and fix the timing issue (not confirmed yet). A question about the cam adjuster magnet (of 2011 audi Q5 2.0TFSI). I am having a P0016 fault code. I have checked both the crankshaft position sensor and the camshaft position sensor and they appear fine but I replaced both anyways. Now the cam adjuster magnet is having weird test results. It's measured 6.7 ohm resistance. the magnet pin pops out when connected to an external alkaline batter of 7.5V or 9.0V and also pops out when connecting to car battery (12.2V).However, it does not pops out when connecting to the cam adjuster plug of the car although it measures having 8.2V when the ignition is ON. I double-checked with multimeter while it's connected to the car plug and it's showing voltage of 8.2V so no loose connection. I am curious and can't explain why the same cam adjuster magnet is having different response by same DC voltage of different sources (from car plug and battery). This violates the basic physics law (current = voltage / resistance). Hope you professional guys can explain the mystery. Thanks. Jeff

[@LarryLane07]

They no longer put screens in the cam bridge from the factory, so you are totally right in taking the screens out

[@Facethruster]

These were the culprits for my 2000 VW GLX v6 burning a lot of oil. I’d like to see a video of how to properly remove and reinstall cam shafts without removing lower timing chain cover (without placing in service position?).

[@NaptownTuner]

I’ll do it soon as well as the part 5 pistons that I had to delete. If you have oil consumption it’s because of the pistons, haven’t seen any leaking valve stem seals yet but when I have the heads off I send all the good ones to the machine shop first.

Hey great videos. I got this p0341 code, I replaced the cam shaft position sensor.

[@krisw.5395]

Hi NaptownTuner, Do you also suggest to remove the screens on the balance shafts (2014 A4, engine code: CPMB)? And, is it possible to change the oil pump chain without removing the pan and the pump?

[@fedjadrndarski5606]

I have payed 126 euros (about 150 USD) for camshaft bridge, OEM. My old bridge has broken oil screen, but that wasn't problem. Problem is non return valve, that ball in cam bridge which holds oil when engine is turned off and without oil pressure. Seat where ball sit was damaged. Because of bad cam bridge valve, I had annoying noisy cold startups with specific VVT rattle only until oil pressure is not reach upper parts of engine. Now, engine is quiet on cold and on hot startup. Many people think that they have timing chain rattle, but it is not a case.

[@mikesanders902]

So what fixed the rattle on cold start up? Replacing which part? The shaft or the bridge?

[@timothysnow8138]

Hey, enjoy your videos..my wife's 2012 cc was rattling on cold start and also would rattle on start up after driving and warmed up. Talked with someone, and they said probably timing stretch or tensioner. I have car torn down, with exception cam bridge and chains are still on. I noticed it has newer style tensioner, and chain doesn't appear loose. Could this still be the problem? And, what is the torque specs on all the cam bridge bolts? Thanks..

[@dopiaza2006]

So what do you do if the screen is mostly missing but can't see it anywhere?

[@westonstaufenberg7278]

Dorman has their own version of the bridge that supposedly has a fix for the screen breaking, theirs uses a one piece stainless steal screen that's laser welded or something. I was thinking of getting theirs but after watching, I'll just get the updated VW part and pop out that screen. It there's apparently because VAG don't trust the customers to change their oil enough, but the damn thing is poorly made that ends up defeating its own purpose.

[@dnkomos1]

is it too late to remove screen from my camshaft bridge on my 2011 audi avant 2.0 TSFI with 93,000 miles which was rebuilt at 50,000 miles by the dealer because of excessive oil consumption recall, waterpump and timing chains were replaced and guides? I thank you for your indept explanation. Don-Detroit

[@MuscleTunerAutoShopLosAngeles]

If my screen popped out and scored the cam bearings would you say that's a complete rebuild or just needs new cams and updated bridge with screen off?

[@edkass7169]

Dorman makes a cam bridge with a stainless steel drilled screen. Do you think that cam bridge is any good

[@kalinakochendzhieva3992]

What is interesting to me is why the cam bridge sometimes dose not want to slide in the cams . It looks like cams are missaligned by some reason . I suspect the actuator on the intaka cam may be slightly worn out and tension from the chain push it in one diraction , but not sure . Have this happened to you ?

Now is having an EPC light and P0341 code when 1,200rpm and once the engine is at 90degrees Celsius. We haven’t found the failure yet but some blog suggest to replace the camshaft bridge.

[@mikelemon1147]

NaptownTuner, as usual, great informational videos and entertaining as well :) Thank you. Question, it seems many experts either I talked to or watched their KZbin channels recommend replacing the Camshaft Bridge if you open up this area. My question, why does one need to really replace it if either the oil screen is missing or if it is still there but as you and others recommend to remove it as you showed using a flat head screw driver as an example! What is the point of replacing it if the screen is missing or one will remove anyway ? Assuming one can thoroughly clean the existing camshaft bridge, I really do not see any benefit of replacing it and not reuse existing one! If anything, it is unnecessary expense! Can you Plz help clarify ?

[@NaptownTuner]

The new one is slightly updated but the most important thing is make sure it has no scoring and make sure you track down the broken screen. You can reuse the old one and it will be just fine.

[@reymundopinedo2398]

Hey brother! I did timing chain guides, Timing chains, cam bridge, magnetic cam adjuster, and intake camshaft. Intake camshaft sprocket was very loose considering it’s supposed to be nearly “locked” with minor play against the actual camshaft which is why I replaced it. Upon start up, it has a very quiet and normal idle but has a rattle noise only at 2000+ RPM. Goes away when the magnetic wheel is disconnected so I’m assuming it has to do with the camshaft when it tries to adjust itself. Is this why you mentioned aftermarket camshafts shouldn’t be used? Or would it have to do with the screen missing off the old cam bridge BEFORE I installed the new one upon repair?

Had to change pistons and rings as there was a problem of oil burning and heavy smoke on it. The process went well. Fired it up, and had that first kick start 🙂 Problem is after 5 days running, it started to have rough idling issue, put in VCDS and got bank 1 correlation with crank. Tried to do a re-timing, and upon opening the front couldnt see issue with timing being off. But I timed it again just to make sure. Problem wasnt solved. One thin I noticed is Camshaft Bridge Screen was broken and it peeled away😒 Could the Camshaft Adjuster be the issue in this case, as it might be that debries had moved into the "vvt"❓

That shouldn’t cause that fault, maybe if you installed an aftermarket camshaft or only a few times I’ve seen the intake cam (reverse thread) adjustment plug with a broken spring If you double checked timing by matching the links I trust you did it right but that’s usually what it always is with timing out of time or stretched chain
