Give your engine's valve timing system a fresh control component with the Hitachi Astemo VVT Solenoid VTS0004. It is a new, actual OE part that regulates engine oil flow to the camshaft timing actuator on command from the engine computer. It is listed for several models from Infiniti and Nissan, among them the 2003-2007 Nissan 350Z, 2003-2008 Infiniti FX35 and 2006-2008 Infiniti M35.
Hitachi Astemo describes this unit as a variable timing control solenoid and catalogs it for the left position. When the engine computer energizes it, the solenoid opens and closes to route oil to the cam timing actuator. This lets the system advance or retard valve timing as operating conditions change.
Signs this part may need replacing include a check engine light with valve timing codes, rough idle, hesitation or reduced power. These symptoms can have other causes, including oil condition and wiring faults, so diagnose the cause before replacing the solenoid.

What does a VVT solenoid do?
It is an electrically controlled valve. When the engine computer commands it, it directs engine oil to the camshaft timing actuator so valve timing can change with operating conditions.
Is this the right variable valve timing solenoid for my 2003-2007 Nissan 350Z?
VTS0004 is listed for the 2003-2007 Nissan 350Z in the left position. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
Which side does VTS0004 install on?
Hitachi Astemo catalogs this solenoid for the left position on the listed Infiniti and Nissan applications.
Is this a new part?
Yes. Hitachi Astemo describes VTS0004 as a new, actual OE variable timing control solenoid.
What are signs a VVT solenoid may need replacing?
Possible signs include a check engine light with valve timing codes, rough idle, hesitation or reduced power. Other faults can cause these symptoms too, so diagnose the cause before replacing the solenoid.
