My case has gotten picked up by the motor ombudsman last week so they’re reviewing it with my evidence pack now. I’ll share my claim update whether it’s good or bad once I get a decision made.

If you’ve caught it that early I think you’d be fine just tightening the bolts to spec like you suggested just use some thread lock on. My case has been accepted with the ombudsman and waiting an adjudicator. Thanks for posting I will include another report of this to the case.

Where did you manage to get that from? Thank you for this!

Thanks FearDC. Yet another one... Apologies for the terminology, by in the engine I meant all over the timing belt and gears. It isn't just a replacement of the timing belt and cambshaft gears, it requires a good clean to remove any contamination too.

There appears to be a couple of other related posts to this on this fourm and I have a VW (sorry I know) Tiguan 2018 1.4 TSI My camshaft adjuster bolts have also come loose. VW are refusing to admit any manufactuer fault due to the incorrect torque being used. Oil and metal shavings have gone in my engine. I'm building a case to the motor ombudman. Do you have any further information about this? I've also seen 2 other related posts and people are saying they've seen the same things too on my reddit posts.
