About this part

Product Details

Gates is a well-known name for reliable engine components, and their Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid is no exception. This part plays a crucial role in managing your engine's camshaft timing, helping to optimize performance and fuel economy across a wide range of Audi and Volkswagen models. If your check engine light is on and you're seeing codes related to camshaft position or timing, this solenoid is often the culprit.

This VVT solenoid is built to meet the original equipment specifications for fit and function. It works by controlling the flow of oil to the camshaft phasers, which in turn adjust the valve timing based on engine speed and load. Proper operation of this solenoid means your engine can breathe more efficiently, leading to a smoother idle, better throttle response, and improved gas mileage. It's designed as a direct replacement, making installation straightforward for many vehicles, including popular models like the Volkswagen CC, Audi A3, and Volkswagen Tiguan.
