Gates VVS106 Variable Valve Timing Solenoid OE-Exact OCV Replacement

The Gates VVS106 is an OE-exact Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid, also commonly known as an Oil Control Valve (OCV). Engineered to OE specifications in form, fit, and performance, this direct-fit replacement restores your engine's variable valve timing system to proper operation for optimal efficiency and reliability.

The variable valve timing solenoid plays a critical role in engine management by continuously regulating oil flow to the VVT actuator, enabling precise camshaft timing adjustments across the RPM range. A failed or degraded solenoid can result in rough idle, poor fuel economy, reduced power output, and increased emissions — all of which this Gates replacement is designed to correct.

Key Features:

• Designed to OE specifications in form, fit, and performance for a direct, no-modification installation
• Constructed from high-quality materials for durability and maximum service life
• Continuously controls oil flow for precise camshaft timing and maximum engine performance
• Restores proper VVT function to improve fuel economy, power, idle quality, and emissions
• Tested to meet or exceed OEM performance standards
• Backed by Gates' century-long reputation in OEM-equivalent automotive parts
