Cam AdjusterRepair

Nothing kills a drive to work or a weekend drive like the check engine light popping on for some unknown reason that could be anything from a loose gas cap to an engine in need of being completely rebuilt.

One common culprit that causes the check engine light to turn on in European cars like BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Porsche, Land Rover, or MINI, is an issue with the camshaft adjuster. A component in the variable valve timing system of your vehicle, over time various pieces like the timing chain or balance shaft components will wear out and it may even fail completely, which will cause the check engine light to turn on and which can also cause a variety of issues with your vehicle’s performance while driving.

In addition to the obvious symptom, which is the check engine light, you may notice your car frequently stalling, a massive drop in power, irregular acceleration and in some instances your vehicle won’t even be able to turn on. In the event you notice any of these symptoms, schedule a service appointment immediately with the professionals at Bay Diagnostic to ensure that your cam adjuster can be repaired or replaced as needed.

With each model of BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Porsche, Land Rover, and Mini Cooper boasting its’ own unique design under the hood, it’s important that when you notice signs of a failing cam adjuster or your check engine light turns on, that you can count on your mechanic to not only have the experience and knowledge needed to repair the cam adjuster, but also the right tools for the job as well.
