NTK Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid P/N:VV0040

Keep your engine's cam timing responsive across the rev range with the NTK engine variable valve timing (VVT) solenoid VV0040. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 2006-2016 BMW Z4 and 2007-2013 BMW 328i — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list. A VVT solenoid regulates the flow of engine oil to the camshaft phaser so the ECM can advance or retard valve timing; if a failed solenoid is the cause of VVT-related trouble codes, rough idle, or sluggish response, this replaces it.

  • Hard-coat anodized spool valve: resists corrosion and increases service life.
  • Precision-wound, coated-copper windings: built to increase solenoid longevity.
  • High-strength thermoplastic body: resistant to temperature, moisture, and chemicals.
  • Precise OE valve body dimensions with fluorocarbon O-rings: help prevent oil leakage.

Engineered to meet and/or exceed OE fit, form and function for proper VVT operation at both low and high RPMs, each unit is 100% tested and inspected — with end-of-production testing done in oil so the valve is primed and ready on installation. Backed by a 3-year/36,000-mile warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the NTK engine variable valve timing (VVT) solenoid VV0040 do?

It regulates the flow of engine oil to the camshaft phaser so the ECM can advance or retard valve timing, keeping VVT operation correct at both low and high RPMs.

What is a variable valve timing solenoid, and what are signs mine may need replacing?

It's the oil-control valve for the VVT system. Signs it may need replacing include VVT-related trouble codes, rough idle, or sluggish response, though diagnose the cause first as these can have other sources.

Will this VVT solenoid fit my BMW?

It's a direct-fit replacement for many BMW models, including the 2006-2016 BMW Z4 and 2007-2013 BMW 328i. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your year and model.

How is the VV0040 built for durability?

It uses a hard-coat anodized spool valve, precision-wound coated-copper windings, a high-strength thermoplastic body resistant to temperature, moisture and chemicals, and fluorocarbon O-rings to help prevent oil leakage.

Is the NTK VVT solenoid tested and warranted?

Yes. Each unit is 100% tested and inspected, with end-of-production testing done in oil so the valve is primed on installation, and it's backed by a 3-year/36,000-mile warranty.
