CMP Actuator
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
The CMP actuator is a vane type design that hydraulically changes angle or timing of the camshaft relative to crankshaft position. The CMP actuator allows earlier or later intake and exhaust valve opening during the 4-stroke engine cycle. The CMP actuator cannot vary the duration of valve opening or valve lift. The CMP actuator is to be serviced as an assembly. For system operation, refer to Camshaft Actuator System Description .
The CMP actuator consists of the CMP reluctor wheel (1), wheel retaining pins (2), return spring (3), front cover (4), park position pin (5), park position pin spring (6), vanes and vane springs (7), rotor (8), housing with chain sprocket (9), sealing cover/thrust plate (10), and bolts (11).
