What is Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid?

Variable valve timing (VVT) solenoid helps the car’s mechanisms provide a smooth idling system, a better power delivery system to be used in the everyday working schema, improves the car’s fuel consumption capacity, and provides a better superior emission control. In order to achieve all these landmarks, the VVT system of your car is working in unison with many other components under your hood, including the VVT solenoid. The VVT solenoid functions to change the camshaft’s position in the engine.

The valve variable solenoid functions on the oil pressure and is responsible for advancing or retreating the position of the cams to provide the optimum performance from your car’s engine. Each camshaft has a variable valve (VVT) solenoid, capable of changing the supply of oil pressure to the system depending on the speed of the car and the load on the engine.

If the VVT malfunctions, check engine light in your dashboard will be illuminated.
