Keep your engine's cam timing responding on cue with the Walker Products Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid 590-1213. This exhaust-side variable valve timing solenoid drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2012 Hyundai Azera, 2010-2012 Hyundai Santa Fe, 2011 Kia Sorento, and 2011 Kia Sedona — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
The VVT solenoid regulates the flow of pressurized oil to the cam phaser or VVT sprocket, adjusting valve timing based on real-time driving conditions to support fuel efficiency, throttle response, and emissions. Over time these solenoids can clog, stick open or closed, or fail electrically — signs the unit may need replacing. If a sticking or failed solenoid is the cause, this OE-replacement part restores that control.
Controls camshaft timing: Actuates oil flow to the VVT sprocket for optimized valve timing across power, fuel economy, and emissions.
Exact OE fit: Installs using factory connectors and mounting points with no modification required.
OE-replacement calibration: Matches the original electrical specs, oil flow rate, and response timing.
Built for harsh environments: Heat-resistant plastic housing, precision-machined internal valves, and oil-sealed connectors.
It regulates the flow of pressurized oil to the cam phaser or VVT sprocket, adjusting valve timing to real-time driving conditions for fuel efficiency, throttle response, and emissions.
Which vehicles does this VVT solenoid fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2012 Hyundai Azera, 2010-2012 Hyundai Santa Fe, 2011 Kia Sorento, and 2011 Kia Sedona. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
What are the signs a VVT solenoid may need replacing?
Solenoids can clog, stick open or closed, or fail electrically, setting fault codes like P0010-P0014 or P0020-P0024 along with rough idle, hesitation, or reduced power. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
Is this an intake or exhaust VVT solenoid?
The 590-1213 is cataloged as the exhaust-side VVT solenoid for the listed applications.
Does installation require modification?
No — it installs using the factory connectors and mounting points with no modification required, matching the original electrical specs, oil flow rate, and response timing.
