Gates 20-24 Hyundai Palisade V-6 3.8L Exhaust (Left) Engine Variable Valve Timing Solenoid

This Gates Variable Valve Timing (VVT) solenoid, part number VVS178, is built with a durable solenoid coil that's designed to withstand the heat and pressure found in your engine's oil passages. It's a key component for managing your engine's valve timing, which directly impacts performance, fuel economy, and emissions. When the engine control module (ECM) signals for a change in valve timing, this solenoid directs oil flow to the VVT actuator, making those adjustments happen smoothly and precisely.

This VVT solenoid fits a range of Hyundai and Kia vehicles, including models like the 2012-2015 Hyundai Azera, 2013-2015 Hyundai Santa Fe, and 2014-2016 Kia Sedona. Replacing a faulty VVT solenoid can resolve issues like rough idling, poor acceleration, reduced fuel efficiency, and check engine lights related to camshaft position. Ensuring this part is functioning correctly is important for keeping your engine running at its best.
