Product Details

Gates Engine Variable Valve Timing Sprocket VCP928 is a direct-fit timing component for vehicles equipped with variable valve timing. It is commonly referred to as a cam phaser or cam actuator and is built to restore accurate cam timing control in the engine valvetrain. This part cross-references Standard Ignition VVT669 for the same application.

Compatible with 2009-2014 Acura TSX and 2010-2011 Honda CR-V, this VVT sprocket supports precise timing chain operation and OE-style engine response. The Gates VCP928 is a practical replacement when the original cam timing component is worn, noisy, or no longer maintaining proper timing control.

Common Issues This Part May Address

• Rough idle caused by inconsistent cam timing
• Reduced engine power from worn VVT control components
• Fuel economy loss related to timing variation issues
• Emissions concerns tied to improper valve timing
• Timing chain system noise from a deteriorated sprocket assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine code and timing chain system configuration before installation. Follow factory service procedures for cam timing alignment, torque specifications, and any required relearn or calibration steps after replacement. Inspect related timing components, including the chain, guides, and tensioner, while the system is open.
