How This VVT Solenoid Works

The VVT solenoid regulates oil delivery inside the engine’s variable valve timing system, helping the cam timing mechanism operate as intended. On Mini Cooper models, a worn or restricted solenoid can affect oil control to the VVT assembly and reduce proper lubrication of the chain and gear components. Part number 1811559 is built for the listed Mini Cooper fitment and is also cross-referenced to Beck/Arnley 024-1955 and Dorman - OE Solutions 917-243 for the same application.

Common Problems It May Address

  • Check engine light related to VVT system performance
  • Rough idle or inconsistent engine response
  • Oil control issues within the variable valve timing system
  • Noise or wear concerns tied to VVT chain and gear lubrication
  • Timing performance problems on a 2002-2005 Mini Cooper
