Cam tensioner parts?
 
I finally bought both OEM cam tensioners (it's STUPID how they charge a ton on money for them!:tuttut:) and need to know what other parts (I know I need to buy new valve cover gaskets) I need to buy to do this job? I'll be buying new cam chains next.

Don't forget valve cover gaskets.

Not sure what sort of maintenance your car has had, but now would also be a great time to do the timing belt, water pump, thermostat, fan bearing, serpentine belt, serpentine belt roller/tensioner, spark plugs, etc.

You will also need the gaskets under the tensioners, good quality silicone sealant, and assuming you leave the exhaust cam in place one cam blanking cap and I think three cam oil seals.

Gasket: 077 198 217 (2x)
Blanking cap: 078 103 113 E (1x)
Cam oil seal: 026 103 085D

Audi prices for the cam seals are stupid so I usually buy Elring.

Yes I know I need new valve cover gaskets. Also I do plan on buy new parts to do the timing belt job.
