Understanding the Camshaft in Your Jaguar XJ
The heart of your engine timing control system in the Jaguar XJ is the camshaft, a critical component that dictates the engine's breathing efficiency. The camshaft's primary role is to open and close the valves in sync with the crankshaft, ensuring your XJ's engine performs at its peak. The precision with which this process is executed affects everything from fuel economy to the overall power output of your vehicle.
Signs of Camshaft Wear or Failure
Being an integral part of the engine parts, the camshaft endures significant stress and can wear over time. Symptoms of a failing camshaft may include reduced engine performance, increased emissions, and an unusual ticking noise coming from the engine bay. If you experience any of these issues with your Jaguar XJ, it is crucial to address them promptly to avoid further damage to your engine.

What is a Camshaft?
A camshaft sits at the engine's top end and is a vital component of your car's valve train, which allows air and fuel to enter the combustion chamber. Modern engines can have up to four camshafts (dual cams) with four valves per cylinder. The camshaft usually has egg-shaped cams that open and close the engine valves. It is driven by the crankshaft by the timing system, connected by a timing belt or timing chain.
Signs of a Broken Camshaft
There are a few signs your camshaft might be damaged. these include:
- Engine check light - this can be on for a number of reasons, but if it coincides with the other symptoms, then it might be worth checking your camshaft
- Lack of acceleration - if your vehicle accelerates poorly, it could be a sign of a broken camshaft
- Prone to stalling - if your car is stalling a lot, then you should get your camshaft checked
