Genuine Jaguar right-hand lower camshaft bearing carrier (camshaft holder) removed from a 2004 Jaguar S-Type 4.2 V8 Petrol (219kW). This component is fitted to the right-hand cylinder head (driver side/O/S on UK vehicles) and supports the camshaft, maintaining precise alignment and proper lubrication for smooth and reliable valve train operation.
The lower camshaft bearing carrier is precision-machined to support the camshaft journals and is essential for maintaining correct valve timing and engine performance. It should only be replaced with the correct matching component where appropriate.
