OE-Style VVT Solenoid for Toyota and Lexus

The Gates VVS108 Engine Variable Valve Timing Solenoid is built to OE specifications for fit, form, and performance. It is designed for 12-volt electromagnetic operation and uses durable materials to help restore proper oil control for variable valve timing systems in Toyota and Lexus applications.

For drivers searching for a Toyota Camry VVT solenoid, Lexus RX350 intake oil control valve, or a replacement variable valve timing solenoid for Avalon and Sienna models, this part number VVS108 provides a direct-fit service solution.

Key Features

  • Gates Engine Variable Valve Timing Solenoid, part number VVS108
  • OE-style fit, form, and performance
  • 12-volt electromagnetic activation
  • Female connector with 2 male blade terminals
  • Seal and gasket/seal included
  • Built with high-quality materials for durability and service life
  • Designed to help restore engine performance, fuel economy, idle quality, power delivery, and emissions control

Product Details

The Gates VVS108 is an engine variable valve timing solenoid, also referred to as an oil control valve, used to regulate oil flow to the VVT system. Proper solenoid operation is important for maintaining cam timing response and consistent engine behavior. This OE performance replacement is engineered for applications including Toyota Avalon, Camry, Highlander, Sienna, Venza, and RAV4, as well as Lexus ES350, RX350, and RX450h models. It also covers select Lexus GS, IS, and GS450h applications by year and position.

This part cross-references Dorman OE Solutions 917-212 and Standard Ignition VVT155 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

  • Rough or unstable idle related to VVT control issues
  • Reduced engine response from a sticking or failing oil control valve
  • Check engine light conditions tied to variable valve timing faults
  • Poor fuel economy caused by incorrect cam timing control
  • Emissions and drivability problems linked to inconsistent oil flow in the VVT system

Installation Notes

  • Verify engine position and application before ordering; this part is used in intake, left, and exhaust (right) positions depending on vehicle and year.
  • Confirm connector style, terminal count, and voltage match the original component.
  • Inspect the mating surface and replace any damaged seals during service.
  • Follow factory service procedures for oil control valve replacement and system inspection.

Quality Assurance

Gates designs the VVS108 to OE specifications and tests it to help restore engine performance in the intended application. The component is constructed from durable materials for reliable service in Toyota and Lexus VVT systems.
