WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Jaguar XE and 2017 Jaguar XE. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
G11308387

The Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) solenoid is located on the chain cover and secured with two screws.

The VCT solenoid is controlled by a PWM output from the PCM. The PCM uses signals from the CMP sensor and determines the position of the VCT actuator which has a direct interface with the exhaust camshaft.

The VCT solenoid incorporates a spindle that acts on the spool valve in the VCT actuator to advance and retard the exhaust camshaft timing.
