7. VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing-intelligent) System

General

The VVT-i system is designed to control the intake camshaft within a range of 40

 (of Crankshaft Angle)

to provide valve timing that is optimally suited to the engine condition. This realizes proper torque in
all the speed ranges as well as realizing excellent fuel economy, and reducing exhaust emissions.

Using the engine speed signal, vehicle speed signal, and the signals from mass air flow meter, throttle
position sensor and water temperature sensor, the engine ECU can calculate optimal valve timing for
each driving condition and controls the camshaft timing oil control valve. In addition, the engine ECU
uses signals from the camshaft position sensor and crankshaft position sensor to detect the actual valve
timing, thus providing feedback control to achieve the target valve timing.
