The camshafts are responsible for opening and closing the valves in time with the movement of the pistons. Sometimes the lobes can become worn or scored, necessitating a replacement of the entire shaft. Performance options are also available with more aggressive cam profiles that allow increased lift and duration.
The camshaft adjustment unit, also referred to as an engine timing sprocket or camshaft sprocket, is part of your BMW's VANOS system which controls the position of the camshaft and valves. If your sprocket has failed, it will be unable to properly adjust the camshaft timing. This can result in poor or delayed performance and efficiency which negatively affects driveability and engine power. This OEM Kolbenschmidt sprocket is the perfect option to restore proper timing functionality without the high BMW price tag.
