Estimate camshaft replacement: camshaft, followers and lifters, cam phasers, seals and gaskets, timing chain or belt kit and oil service. Choose your brand and model — a 4-cylinder with one cam is a very different job from a V8 with four camshafts.

From ticking, misfires and timing codes to an engine that runs like new — in four clear steps.
Ticking from the top of the engine, loss of power, misfires, a check-engine light with camshaft position or timing codes? Message us on WhatsApp or book online. An engine specialist replies within minutes and tells you whether it sounds like the cam, the phaser, lifters or the timing chain.
We read live camshaft/crankshaft correlation data, check oil pressure, inspect the cam lobes with an endoscope through the oil filler and check timing chain stretch. You get a precise quote — camshaft, followers, seals, chain if needed — before we open the engine.
We remove the valve cover and timing components, fit a new or reground camshaft with new followers, lifters, seals and gaskets, install the chain or belt kit if worn, set timing to spec and fill with fresh oil and filter. Depending on the engine this takes 1–3 days.
After a first start we verify timing data, oil pressure and the absence of noise, then road-test and re-check after cooling. You receive a report with photos and a warranty on parts and labour.
Camshaft wear is almost always a symptom of something else — oil starvation, long service intervals or a stretched chain. These are the cases Golden Horse's engine team sees most often.
The camshaft is one of your engine's crucial elements. It controls the opening and closing of your engine valves, which is necessary in balancing the intake and exhaust process. The perfect operation of the camshaft ensures your engine, mileage, and overall automobile lifespan. If you require camshaft replacement in Dubai, knowing the signs of failure and the replacement process can assist you in making the right decision.
The camshaft is typically located in the cylinder head or engine block and is rotated by the crankshaft through a timing belt or chain. Camshaft lobes push the valves within the engine to open so air-fuel can enter the combustion chamber and exhaust gases can exit. This must happen at the right time; if your camshaft is not synchronized, your motor is not in working condition, emissions increase, and the engine may break.
Regular maintenance and timely replacement of a broken camshaft at a professional car repair service can prevent all of these issues and increase the lifespan of your motor.
The camshaft sensor monitors the camshaft's position. A faulty camshaft sensor can trigger the check engine light and affect engine timing. A worn camshaft may cause engine misfire, rough idling, or poor acceleration. You should know the symptoms of a failed camshaft so that you do not have any further damage to your car's engine. These are some of the warning signs that indicate that you should replace your camshaft:
If you notice any of the above symptoms, let our mechanics diagnose the problem and perform camshaft repair services. Ignoring these signs will lead to total engine destruction and additional repair charges.
