Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Gates VVS247 a VVT solenoid for the 2014-2018 Nissan Altima V6 3.5L?
Yes, Gates VVS247 fits the 2014-2018 Nissan Altima V6 3.5L, which takes six. For a different Nissan or Infiniti, find its year and engine in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
Is this VVT solenoid right for the 2022-2025 Nissan Rogue 3-cylinder 1.5L?
Yes, Gates VVS247 fits the 2022-2025 Nissan Rogue 3-cylinder 1.5L. The 2022-2023 years take one solenoid and the 2024-2025 years take two.
Does this VVT solenoid come with a seal or mounting bolts?
The seal is included, but mounting hardware is not. Plan on new bolts, since the old ones may not be reusable.
What voltage and connector does the Gates VVS247 have?
This solenoid is a 12-volt electromagnetic unit with one female connector and two male blade terminals.
Can a bad VVT solenoid cause a rough idle?
It can be one source, since the solenoid controls oil flow to the timing system, but other faults can also roughen idle. A shop can test it, because the check needs the engine running.
