This camshaft is a critical component of the engine's valve train, controlling the opening and closing of intake and exhaust valves. Manufactured to stringent Volvo standards, it ensures precise timing and lift, unlike a worn camshaft which can exhibit flattened lobes and excessive play. Symptoms of a failing camshaft include rough idling, loss of engine power, and increased exhaust emissions.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Inspect mating surfaces for wear before fitting. Use torque specs from service manual. Replace gaskets and seals as a set — reusing compressed gaskets causes oil leaks. Clean all oil passages with compressed air.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
A worn camshaft may cause noticeable engine misfires or a rough idle. If left unaddressed, valve timing will degrade, leading to a significant loss of engine power and potentially increased fuel consumption. Continued operation with a faulty camshaft can lead to further damage to the valve train and cylinder head.
Ensure the camshaft journals and bearing surfaces are thoroughly cleaned before installation to prevent premature wear. Avoid overtightening camshaft bearing cap bolts, as this can distort the camshaft and damage the bearings.
Inspect valve lifters, timing gears, and valve seals for wear or damage when replacing the camshaft.
