English term or phrase: cam caps
Kontext: Reparaturschulungsvideo

"We've got a P0017. (...) How do we get this code? Most likely, crank the cam timing is the problem. (...) Do not rotate the cam using the cam bolts. When you're doing your validation check, always use the crankshaft bolt for rotating the engine. (...) Other causes of P0017: (...) it could be because the _cam caps_ are too tight causing the cam not to rotate properly, or they could be too loose causing oil to hemorrhage (...)

Explanation:
cam von camshaft, nur zur Sicherheit :-)

Der vollständige Begriff heißt in der Fachsprache im Englischen eigentlich: camshaft-bearing caps

Im Link habe ich ein zweisprachiges Dokument beigefügt, dass eine Montageanlage für Nockenwellen-Lagerdeckel zeigt (Seite10).

Viel Erfolg.
