Product Details

Gates Engine Variable Valve Timing Sprocket VCP864 is built for BMW engines that use an exhaust cam phaser or cam actuator style VVT component. It is engineered to match OE specifications and restore proper valve timing response, which supports smoother engine operation, improved fuel economy, stronger power delivery, and lower emissions when the original sprocket is worn or no longer functioning correctly. This part cross-references BMW 11367540348 for the same application.

Compatible BMW applications include the 2007-2010 BMW 335i exhaust, 2008-2010 BMW 535i exhaust, 2008-2010 BMW X6 exhaust, 2011-2012 BMW 740i exhaust, and 2009-2016 BMW Z4 exhaust. The VCP864 part number is also used across additional BMW 1 Series M, 135i, 335is, 335i xDrive, 335xi, 535i xDrive, 535i GT, 535xi, 740Li, and 2011 BMW 1 Series M exhaust applications.

Common Issues This Part May Address

  • Rough idle caused by worn exhaust cam timing control
  • Reduced engine response from inconsistent valve timing
  • Check engine light concerns related to VVT operation
  • Loss of fuel efficiency from timing control wear
  • Emissions performance issues tied to cam phaser degradation

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine code, model year, and exhaust-side application before installation. The VCP864 uses timing chain drive and OE-style mounting points, so correct cam timing alignment is critical during service. Replace related timing components as needed and follow BMW service procedures for torque values and timing synchronization.

Quality Assurance

Gates designs this Engine Variable Valve Timing Sprocket to OE specifications and uses high-quality materials for durability and service life. Each unit is tested to help restore engine performance in BMW exhaust VVT applications.
