Description
The engine in your Mercedes-Benz is a precision engineered and expertly crafted machine. No stone was left unturned in the pursuit of performance and efficiency, which is where this camshaft adjuster comes in.
Mercedes-Benz uses a variable valve timing system to allow the engine to run at peak efficiency at most times, yet when power is needed the engine can automatically adjust valve timing at certain RPM ranges to bring out the most your engine has to offer.
This system, while complex, is quite reliable, however, like any mechanical system parts can fail, and when they do, they must be replaced to keep the engine running properly.
This camshaft adjuster is bolted to the exhaust camshaft, and is driven by gears that mesh with the adjuster unit on the intake camshaft. If you are replacing your camshaft adjuster, now would be the perfect time to inspect and replace any other components in the engine timing system that are showing signs of wear to help keep your engine running like new for years to come.
