INA US Engine Valve Lifter P/N:VT0052
Keep the valvetrain quiet and the valves precisely timed with the INA US Engine Valve Lifter VT0172, an INA VTC hydraulic pivot element (tappet) that installs as a direct-fit replacement on the 2018-2023 Volkswagen Atlas [V6-3.6L], 2020-2022 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport [V6-3.6L], and the 2006-2010 and 2012-2017 Volkswagen Passat [V6-3.6L]. It rides on the camshaft and automatically compensates for valve lash, transferring cam motion to actuate the valve while taking up clearance hydraulically.
A worn or noisy hydraulic element can produce a persistent tapping or ticking from the valvetrain; if a failed lifter is the cause, this replaces it. Sold individually — order the quantity your engine requires.
