Camshaft Adjuster 04E109088AF For VW EA211 1.2/1.4/1.6 TSI Engines
The camshaft adjuster (variable valve timing gear / camshaft phaser) with OEM number 04E 109 088 AF is a direct replacement for the intake camshaft timing component on Volkswagen Group's EA211 1.2 TSI, 1.4 TSI, and 1.6 MPI petrol engines. This precision VVT (Variable Valve Timing) unit is a critical component of the valvetrain system, mounted on the intake camshaft to regulate the timing of valve opening and closing for optimal engine performance.

Why The EA211 Camshaft Adjuster Fails
Internal locking pin wear: The locking pin mechanism fails to engage or disengage correctly, causing characteristic rattle on cold start
Oil passage contamination: Sludge or debris in engine oil can block tiny oil passages controlling advance/retard movement
Seal deterioration: Internal seals harden over time, allowing internal oil leakage that reduces holding force
Control valve (N205) malfunction: Solenoid control valve can stick, causing camshaft position faults
Recommended Replacement Indiors
Symptom
Diagnosis
Rattling noise on cold start that disappears after 1-2 seconds
CMM measurement - 48-tooth configuration verified against OE blueprint
Locking mechanism function
Bench test - verifies locking pin engages and releases at correct oil pressure
Oil passage integrity
Pressure and vacuum testing - no internal leaks or blockages
Material hardness
Rockwell hardness test - confirms correct heat treatment
⚠️ IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTE
The EA211 uses a timing chain, not a belt. The camshaft adjuster is a critical timing component. Professional installation by a qualified mechanic with access to correct timing locking tools is strongly recommended. Incorrect installation will cause timing misalignment and astrophic engine damage.
Critical Installation Notes
Camshaft adjuster is held by a single central bolt (N 91197203) with specified two-stage torque procedure: 18 Nm first stage, followed by 50 Nm final torque
Always lock the camshafts before removing the adjuster using correct EA211 timing tools
Replace the central bolt - it is a torque-to-yield fastener and must not be reused
Prime the adjuster with engine oil before installation to ensure immediate oil pressure on first start
Consider replacing the N205 control valve and timing chain tensioner if showing wear
Packaging & Supply
Individual packaging: Sealed in anti-static VCI bag, foam-lined carton
Lead time: 3-7 working days for stock orders
Minimum order quantity: 1 piece (sample order available)

Quick Summary
The VW camshaft adjuster 04E109088AF is an OE-specifiion replacement for the intake camshaft VVT unit on EA211 1.2 TSI, 1.4 TSI, and 1.6 MPI petrol engines. The 48-tooth adjuster fits multiple Volkswagen Group vehicles. This direct-fit component restores precise valve timing, eliminates cold start rattle, and improves power and fuel economy.
