The Engine Variable Valve Timing (Vvt) Solenoid is a part of the timing system. It takes note of the engine load and speed and regulates the oil flow accordingly. When the Nissan Engine Variable Valve Timing (Vvt) Solenoid functions like it should, it helps support fuel efficiency and overall engine performance.
How can you tell when it's time to replace the Engine Variable Valve Timing (Vvt) Solenoid? Watch for these potential symptoms because in the worst case, a broken or worn Engine Variable Valve Timing (Vvt) Solenoid can lead to engine failure. You might require an OEM timing solenoid if the check engine light is on, your engine is idling roughly, or your fuel efficiency is noticeably poor.
One of the most common reasons for Engine Variable Valve Timing (Vvt) Solenoid problems is dirty engine oil. Motor oil can gunk up the path from the solenoid to other engine parts and stop it from working properly. Changing your oil at regular intervals is a great way to help avoid this issue entirely.
