VCT Operating Ranges

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2015 Jaguar XFR-S, 2015 Jaguar XFR, 2015 Jaguar XF, 2014 Jaguar XFR-S, and 2014 Jaguar XFR. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAMSHAFT VALVE OPENS VALVE CLOSES
Intake 29 degrees BTDC (before top dead center) to 33 degrees ATDC (after top dead center) 207 to 269 degrees ATDC
Exhaust 244 to 194 degrees BTDC 6 to 56 degrees ATDC

The system consists of a VCT unit and a VCT solenoid for each camshaft. The ECM controls the system using PWM (pulse width modulation) signals to the VCT solenoids.

The torsional energy generated by the valve springs and the inertia of the valve train components are used to operate the system.
