Morning all
need a little help with a problem with my 2.5tdi. I've been chasing an oil leak for a while, finally traced it to the cam cover for the offside bank. While I had it off to check for damage and to re-seal it I discovered one of my rockers had been thrown off the hydraulic tappet and was loose in the head, managed to fish the rocker out but didn't have time to do much else apart from sort my original leak.
Now, I've got two questions - firstly, to replace the rocker is it possible to slip it in under the cam with the tappet depressed, or does the cam have to be removed?
Secondly, my engine code is BDH - I was under the impression the B series engines had roller rockers, but this is clearly not, so is my engine fitted with earlier heads or was there a change-over period where earlier heads were fitted to the B series engines?
Thanks all, Frank
