Detroit Gaskets VTG185N Variable Valve Timing VVT Sprocket Intake Hyundai Kia 3.3L 3.8L

The Detroit Gaskets VTG185N is a replacement Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Sprocket designed for the intake camshaft on 2006–2014 Hyundai and Kia engines equipped with 3.3L and 3.8L V6 powerplants. This is an updated-specification sprocket featuring a revised 1.460" height for proper camshaft phaser alignment.

Key Features:

• Direct-fit intake camshaft VVT sprocket — two (2) required per engine
• Updated 1.460" height specification for correct alignment with updated OEM intake camshaft
• Engineered to restore proper variable valve timing function and camshaft phaser operation
• Manufactured to meet or exceed OEM fit and performance standards
• Replaces worn, cracked, or timing-skipping VVT sprockets causing rough idle, misfires, or timing codes

The variable valve timing sprocket (also referred to as a VVT phaser sprocket or cam sprocket) controls intake camshaft timing by interfacing with the camshaft phaser and timing chain. A worn or damaged sprocket can trigger P-codes related to camshaft position performance, rough idle, or poor engine response. Note: This updated sprocket must be used in conjunction with the updated OEM intake camshaft to ensure proper alignment and fitment.
