2019 Lexus RX350 Camshafts

The variable valve timing (VVT) system allows the engine control module (ECM) to regulate the intake and exhaust valve phase angle providing the most optimal engine volumetric efficiency under all engine operating condition to control tailpipe emissions and engine efficiency. Variable valve timing is an emission control device and although there are various methods of operation, the typical device is regulated by oil control valves, actuator solenoids and camshaft phasers.

DENSO’s camshaft position sensors are manufactured to the stricktest OE standards resulting in unsurpassed reliability durability and detection accuracy. DENSO’s camshaft position sensors offer leading edge sensing technology which helps control ignition timing more precisely.

The Camshaft Position Sensor plays a vital role in your engine’s operation, to determine the exact position and speed of the camshaft(s) to the ECM. The ECM uses this information to determine fuel and spark timing as well as VVT operation. A failed sensor can result in a check engine light, hard starting or failure to start, increased vehicle emissions and engine misfire. Camshaft Position Sensors are a premium quality product with outstanding support and leading innovation bred from our OE heritage.

A leader in vehicle electronic solutions, each premium product meets or exceeds OE specifications in appearance, fit, and function, ensuring easy installation and excellent performance. The product has been tested under extreme environments.
