VW Polo / Golf / Caddy / Audi A2 1.4 16V (AKQ / AQQ / AUA) Exhaust Camshaft 036109101DG

Product overview

This new exhaust camshaft is referenced to OE number 036 109 101 DG and is listed for engine codes AKQ, AQQ and AUA. It suits a range of small-capacity Volkswagen and Audi petrol engines and is designed for rebuilds or repairs where the original camshaft lobes or journals have worn.

Camshaft wear can show up as tapping from the cylinder head, misfires, reduced power and higher fuel consumption. A new camshaft restores the correct valve timing profile and is often replaced alongside followers and the timing belt.

Vehicle compatibility

Listing data contains around 100 entries, mostly Mexican and South American market Volkswagen Golf, Bora, Jetta, Polo Classic and Caddy variants from 1997 onward, plus Audi A2 1.4. The list also includes V5, V6 and TDI derivatives that use different engines, so it should be treated as a guide only. Confirm your engine code and OE number before ordering.

Key features

• Chilled cast iron construction
• OE standard size for direct replacement
• Suits engine codes AKQ, AQQ and AUA

Technical specifications

Installation requirements

Fitting a camshaft requires precise timing and should be done by an experienced engine technician. Pre-lubricate lobes and journals, renew the camshaft seal, follow the correct bearing cap tightening sequence and recheck timing marks before the first start.

Fitment checks before ordering

Exhaust and inlet camshafts are not interchangeable, and profiles can change between engine codes. Compare the identification marks on your existing camshaft and confirm by engine code and VIN before purchase. The listing also quotes a Ford reference number, which should be disregarded. We can help confirm fitment if you supply your engine code and VIN.

Package inclusions

1 box containing the camshaft as listed. Seals, bolts, sprockets and followers are not included unless stated.
