Abstract

A camshaft arrangement comprising a camshaft, a vane-type camshaft phaser attached to a first end of the camshaft, a valve actuating arrangement and an oil control valve. The oil control valve comprises an elongated valve member arranged centrally inside the camshaft. The elongated valve member can be adjusted in a longitudinal direction of the camshaft to control the oil flow to the vane-type camshaft phaser by actuation of an actuator. The valve actuating arrangement comprises a first valve actuating configuration attached to the camshaft and a second valve actuating configuration comprising an actuation arm connected to the actuator. The first valve actuating configuration is arranged to be actuated by the actuation arm of the second valve actuating configuration.
