Detailed Description

Gates Engine Variable Valve Timing Solenoid VVS192 is engineered for direct replacement on select vehicles that use variable valve timing control to manage cam timing and engine response. This solenoid helps regulate oil flow to the VVT system, supporting stable idle, improved fuel economy, restored power delivery, and lower emissions when the original unit is worn or malfunctioning. Gates VVS192 is a practical OE-style solution for Nissan Sentra and Versa platforms, along with compatible Nissan Cube, NV200, Note, Versa Note, and Chevrolet City Express applications.

This part cross-references Dorman OE Solutions 918-116 for the same application.

What It Is Used For

  • Correcting rough or unstable idle caused by VVT control issues
  • Restoring cam timing response on engines with a failing oil control valve
  • Addressing reduced fuel economy linked to improper variable valve timing operation
  • Helping recover lost engine power and throttle response
  • Reducing emissions concerns related to VVT system malfunction

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, terminal count, and seal condition before installation. This solenoid uses a female connector, two male blade terminals, and a 12-volt electromagnetic design. Confirm the vehicle position and application details against the fitment list before replacing the original unit. Clean the mounting area and inspect the mating surface so the included seal seats properly.
