  • 0.129 kg
  • 77 applications across the V series
  • 12 used per assembly

🔌 Function

Rides on the camshaft lobe and passes its lift up through the pushrod to the rocker gear.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

  • Persistent tapping or clatter from the top of the engine
  • Noise that stays after the clearances are reset
  • Base of the tappet worn concave or pitted
  • Scuffing or picked-up metal on the body
  • Fine metal debris found in the oil or the filter

🛠️ Service Notes

  • Tappet 3856127 at 0.122 kg and tappet 3855987 for the GL and Gi engines at 0.127 kg sit within a few grams of this one, so weight will not separate them and the order must go by part number
  • Inspect the matching camshaft lobe before condemning the tappet on noise alone
  • Replace tappets as a set if the camshaft is being renewed

📦 Condition

  • Genuine Volvo Penta part
  • Brand new
  • Supplied in original or equivalent packaging
