Help keep cam timing on target with the Hitachi Astemo VVT Solenoid VTS0016, a new, actual OE variable timing control solenoid that manages the oil pressure your engine's camshaft phasers rely on. It is listed for many models from Nissan and Infiniti, among them the 2014-2021 Nissan Altima, 2017-2019 Nissan Rogue and 2013-2019 Nissan Sentra.
- New, actual OE part: Hitachi supplies it new as an original-equipment variable timing control solenoid.
- Controls oil to the phasers: It directs oil pressure to the camshaft phasers (the variable timing gears, also called camshaft sprockets), which control the engine's valve timing.
- Works with the cam-mounted phaser: The phasers are mounted to the camshaft, and this solenoid governs the oil that drives their adjustment.
- Catalog position: front, left, right and exhaust, depending on the application.
Signs a variable valve timing solenoid may need replacing include a check engine light, rough idle and sluggish acceleration. Low or dirty oil, wiring faults or a worn phaser can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause first. If the original solenoid is at fault, VTS0016 replaces it. The quantity per vehicle is one, two or four, depending on the application. Country of origin: Japan.
