Pierburg Camshaft Adjuster Control Valve

The Pierburg Camshaft Adjuster Control Valve (also called a variable valve timing (VVT) solenoid, camshaft adjustment valve, or oil control valve) manages the flow of engine oil to the camshaft adjuster. This lets the engine control unit change camshaft timing to match engine load and speed.

Key Features:

• Electrically actuated solenoid valve that directs oil pressure to advance or retard camshaft timing
• Supports optimized engine performance, fuel efficiency, and lower emissions through precise valve timing control
• Made to OE-level standards, as Pierburg is a long-time original equipment supplier of engine components
• Built to withstand the heat, vibration, and oil exposure of the engine bay
• Designed for direct replacement of the original valve, with no modification

A worn or failing camshaft adjuster control valve can cause rough idle, reduced power, poor fuel economy, timing-related fault codes, or a check engine light. Replacing it helps restore smooth operation and proper engine response. Pierburg is part of the Rheinmetall Automotive group and is known for quality engine management and emissions components.
