What It Is
A set of 2 Colt Stage 2 billet camshafts for the V10 Touareg TDI, fully machined from forged steel bar stock rather than cast.
Why Billet Instead of Cast
Chilled cast material is the industry standard for OHC performance cams and works well for most applications, including the ALH engine. PD engines like the V10, along with BEW, BHW, BRM, PD130, and PD150, put unique stress on the camshaft that calls for at minimum a forged design. Colt's billet cams are machined from forged steel, making them stronger, harder, and tougher than the factory original or a typical OEM-style aftermarket replacement.

Common Questions
Why do I need to provide my VIN?
KermaTDI uses it to confirm proper fitment for your specific V10 Touareg before the order ships.
Do I need the install kit, or just the cams?
The install kit is optional but bundles all the bearings, bolts, lifters, gaskets, and fluids needed for a complete job, so most installers add it rather than sourcing those parts separately.
Is this a direct cast replacement or an upgrade?
It's an upgrade. Colt's billet camshaft is forged rather than cast, built specifically to handle the stress PD-style engines like the V10 put on the cam.
How many camshafts come in this set?
2, enough for the V10 Touareg's PD cylinder head configuration.
