Hydraulic lifters and tappets
The Hydraulic Lifters and Tappets section contains 4 items from the brands INA (2), BORSEHUNG and HAVAL. It includes hydraulic lifters for VAG, Mercedes, Renault and Peugeot engines, as well as valve tappets for Audi, Volkswagen, Skoda, Seat, Citroen, Ford, Fiat and Hyundai. This section will be useful for those looking for timing gear parts for scheduled repairs or to eliminate engine knocking.
When selecting a hydraulic lifter or tappet, cross-check the part number against the original catalog and take the engine generation into account: the same INA item may fit different VAG brands, but not all model years. For diesel engines, such as the HAVAL Hover H5, a separate tappet with the index 1007400ed01 is required, so check the fuel type and engine model. If the original is unavailable, INA and BORSEHUNG alternatives should be chosen based on a full match of fitment, not just appearance.

What is the difference between a hydraulic lifter and a valve tappet?
A hydraulic lifter automatically adjusts valve clearance using oil, while a tappet transmits force from the camshaft to the valve. The catalog includes both items, and they are not always interchangeable.
Will the INA 420008610 hydraulic lifter fit my Volkswagen?
This number is listed for VAG, Mercedes, Renault and Peugeot engines, but it is ultimately only suitable based on fitment to the specific model and model year. Cross-check the number against the original catalog before purchasing.
Can a BORSEHUNG alternative be installed instead of the original?
Yes, if the alternative's fitment fully matches the original part by model, engine and generation. For Audi A1/A3/A4/A6/A7, VW Golf 7, Polo, Passat and Tiguan, the catalog lists BORSEHUNG B18827.
