Camshaft Video

The camshaft is an important component inside your engine. It has specially shaped lobes that open and close the intake and exhaust valves in sync with the movement of the pistons.

This timing is critical for proper engine performance. Because the camshaft works closely with the crankshaft and timing components, issues with the camshaft can affect how the engine runs.

If you’re experiencing performance concerns such as unusual engine noise, reduced power, or drivability issues, the team at Maxcare Auto Centers in Chicago, IL can help. We may begin with an inspection as part of our auto diagnostics service and evaluate related components within the engine repair system.

Because camshaft-related repairs can be complex, proper testing is important to identify the cause.

If your engine or camshaft needs to be inspected, call 773-666-0085 today.
