CVVT Assembly
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- Inspect the CVVT for smooth rotation.
- Clamp the camshaft using a vise. Be careful not to damage the cam lobes and journals in the vise.
- Check that the CVVT is locked by turning it clockwise or counterclockwise. It must not rotate.
- Exhaust CVVT: Seal one of the two retard holes in the camshaft journal with tape.
[Exhaust]
- Exhaust CVVT: Apply approx. 150 kPa (1.5 kgf/cm2
, 21 psi) of compressed air into the unsealed retard hole to release the lock.
Information
- Cover the oil paths with a piece of cloth when applying compressed air to prevent oil from spraying.
- Exhaust CVVT: With compressed air applied, rotate the CVVT into the retard direction (clockwise) and check that the CVVT turns smoothly.
CVVT phasing range
Exhaust: 22.5° ± 1° (from the most advanced position to the most retarded position)
- Exhaust CVVT: Rotate the CVVT into the most advanced position (counterclockwise) and then check that the CVVT is locked.
