Help keep your engine's valve timing adjusting the way it should with the Hitachi Astemo VVT Solenoid, part number VTS0006, a new, actual OE part cataloged for the left position. It is a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 2008-2012 Nissan Pathfinder, 2012-2017 Nissan NV2500 and 2012-2017 Nissan NV3500.
This variable valve timing solenoid acts on commands from the engine computer. It directs oil flow to the valve timing actuator so cam timing can change with engine speed and load. If a failed solenoid in the left position is the cause of a timing-related fault, this unit replaces it.
