How difficult is it to tell if the camshaft hubs (part #928 105 459 00) are not cracked? I just replaced a cam gear on a low mileage car (gear started showing wear) and am now wondering if a cracked hub might have contributed to this? Also, as I look through the driver's side cam belt cover ventilation hole, I can see the cam gear is not running perfectly true (but close). The belt runs perfect. Cause for concern?

Obviously I didn't do enough homework when I ordered the new cam gear. I wish the vendor had mentioned other possible WYAIT things like the camshaft hub when I bought the gear. Now it sounds like I'll have to tear done the finished job to check this out. I wonder if I can change out the camshaft hub and gear without pulling all the belts and the associated hardware? That takes a lot of time. I think that, with PorKen's 32V'r tool I should be able to keep the cam timing OK.

I would think you could if you can get enough slack on the t.belt. That not much work considering you were just in there so everything is clean and fresh in the mind.
