Engine Performance Optimization
When cam phasers fail, valve timing becomes inconsistent. This causes sluggish acceleration and a noticeable drop in overall performance.
A faulty cam phaser throws off timing at low RPMs, leading to unstable idling, shaking, and occasional engine stalling.
Incorrect valve timing reduces torque and top-end power, making the car feel unresponsive even under hard acceleration.
Restore perfect timing and smooth power delivery with professional McLaren cam phaser repair.

The camshaft phaser relies on oil pressure to operate. Low oil levels or poor-quality oil can affect its performance, causing timing issues, engine misfires, or strange noises.
Yes. If the camshaft phaser isn't adjusting the camshaft timing properly, it could result in poor engine performance, decreased fuel efficiency, or difficulty starting the engine.
A malfunctioning camshaft phaser often triggers a "check engine" light, which may show specific error codes related to the variable valve timing system.
McLarens equipped with the M838T V8 engine, found in models like the 570S, 650S, and 720S, are particularly prone to this issue.
Diagnostics: A professional diagnostic scan will typically identify any camshaft phaser-related error codes.
Inspection and replacement: If a malfunction is confirmed, the camshaft phaser or related components (e.g., timing chain, solenoids) might need replacement.
Oil maintenance: Regular oil changes with the correct oil grade can help maintain proper camshaft phaser function.
