OE-Style VVT Solenoid for Jaguar and Land Rover
Restore variable valve timing control with the Gates VVS167 engine variable valve timing solenoid. This electromagnetic oil control valve is built to OE specifications for fit, form, and performance, making it a direct replacement for select Jaguar, Land Rover, Ford, and Lincoln applications.
Designed for 12-volt operation with a female connector, blade terminals, and a steel housing, the Gates OE performance VVT solenoid is engineered to help return proper cam timing control, smoother idle, and consistent engine response.
Key Features
- OE-style engine variable valve timing solenoid for precise oil control
- Electromagnetic activation for responsive VVT operation
- 12-volt design with 1 connector and 2 blade terminals
- Steel housing for durability and service life
- Built to OE specifications in fit, form, and performance
- Part number VVS167 for easy identification and ordering
Detailed Description
The Gates VVS167 is an engine variable valve timing solenoid, also known as an oil control valve, used to regulate oil flow to the VVT system. By helping the engine adjust cam timing as conditions change, it supports better fuel economy, improved power delivery, reduced emissions, and more stable idle quality. Gates OE performance solenoids are constructed from high-quality materials and tested to restore engine performance on the vehicles they were designed for.
Compatible With select Jaguar XF, XJ8, XJR, XK, XKR, S-Type, X-Type, XK8, Vanden Plas, and Super V8 models, plus Land Rover LR3, Range Rover, and Range Rover Sport applications. This part cross-references Standard Ignition VVT103 for the same application.
Common Issues This Part Can Address
- Rough or unstable idle related to VVT control faults
- Reduced engine response from delayed cam timing adjustment
- Check engine light conditions tied to oil control valve performance
- Lower fuel economy caused by inconsistent variable valve timing operation
- Increased emissions from improper cam timing control
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the connector style, terminal count, and mounting location before installation. This solenoid uses a female connector with blade terminals and is available for left or right bank applications on certain Land Rover and Jaguar engines. Inspect the mating connector, wiring, and engine oil condition during replacement, since contamination can affect VVT operation. Confirm vehicle-specific fitment for your year, make, model, and position before ordering.
Quality Assurance
Gates OE performance VVT solenoids are manufactured to OE specifications and tested to help restore proper engine performance. The VVS167 is built with durable materials for long service life and consistent operation in supported Jaguar, Land Rover, Ford Thunderbird, and Lincoln LS applications.
This part fits 126 vehicles
Always verify fitment with your vehicle's VIN if unsure. Submodel & trim restrictions may apply.
