Quick facts
- Part: Walker Products 590-1102 variable timing solenoid
- Also called: engine variable timing solenoid
- Fits: 2002-2003 BMW X5 V8 4.4L or 4.6L and other vehicles

A clogged or sticking solenoid can set fault codes P0010-P0014 or P0020-P0024 and bring rough idle, hesitation or reduced power. Low or dirty engine oil, a worn cam phaser or a damaged wiring connector can be behind those signs too, so find the cause first and replace the solenoid only if it is at fault.
