Product Overview
A rough idle, hesitation, reduced power, hard starting, or camshaft-timing fault can lead to the VANOS solenoids after oil level, oil condition, wiring, and mechanical timing have been checked. Because BMW uses separate intake and exhaust controls, this package supplies a matched pair for both positions.
These valves control engine-oil flow to the variable-cam timing system. They are intended for compatible BMW engines using the listed solenoid design. Read the fault data first and compare the connector, body, seals, and part number; a timing code can also come from oil pressure, sensors, wiring, or worn mechanical components.
Key Features & Performance
