Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation
Camshaft Adjustment, Function
-
The adjustment of intake camshaft is load- and RPM dependent. Exhaust camshafts are not adjusted.
-
Oil pressure is switched to camshaft adjusters (mechanical adjustment devices) via the solenoid valves for camshaft adjustment.
-
The camshaft adjusters then set intake camshafts of both cylinder banks to the direction "early", meaning that the intake valves open earlier.
