Land Rover Part Number: LR001251 - Camshaft Drive Gear
LR001251 is a camshaft drive gear fitted to the timing system of 2.2L DW12 diesel engines. Mounted on the camshaft, it transmits rotational drive from the timing chain or sprocket to the camshaft and establishes the sequence and timing of valve opening and closing in the cylinder head. The gear must match the engine's timing assembly and alignment marks during installation; correct tooth profile and condition are essential to maintain accurate valve timing and to avoid valve-to-piston interference.
