Business Advantages for Resellers

Shop Productivity: Mechanics working on VAG TFSI engines require this tooling for every camshaft service—from routine maintenance to timing chain work. Stocking this set ensures you capture full-service invoices without delaying technician workflow.

High-Margin Accessory: Timing tools command healthy margins on parts sales. With 5 pieces per set, you offer clear value positioning that justifies distributor markup and resale profit.

Repeat Stock Item: TFSI engines are prolific across Audi's model range (A3, A4, A5, A6, Q3, Q5, TT). Shops that service these platforms will need replacement sets as tools wear or are lost in the workshop environment. This is not a one-time purchase.

Competitive Positioning: Offering VAG-specific timing solutions positions your shop as a full-service Audi/Seat/Skoda specialist, differentiating you from general tool suppliers.

Cross-Sell Opportunity: Pair with diesel timing tool sets and camshaft holding solutions to create a complete VAG engine service package for your customer base.

Application Context

This 5-piece set is specified for TFSI engine work—the turbocharged direct-injection platform that dominates Audi's petrol lineup. Mechanics require reliable camshaft locking during:

  • Timing chain service and replacement
  • Camshaft removal and installation
  • Valve train inspection and adjustment
  • Cylinder head work requiring camshaft access

The five-piece composition ensures adequate tooling for multi-lobe engagement and redundancy if pieces are damaged during service.
