Detailed Product Description

This INA VS0004 VVT solenoid regulates oil flow to the variable valve timing system, helping the engine adjust cam timing as operating conditions change. It is listed for the outlet side of the engine on select Volvo S40, V50, C30, C70, V70, S80, S60, V60, XC60, V40 Cross Country, S60 Cross Country, V60 Cross Country, and Ford Focus models, including Focus RS fitment. The part number VS0004 is also associated with cross-reference numbers 36002688 and 4270004100.

What It Helps Address

• Check engine lights related to VVT solenoid performance
• Rough idle caused by unstable cam timing control
• Loss of power or sluggish throttle response
• Timing-related drivability concerns on outlet-side VVT systems
• Oil-control faults affecting variable valve timing operation

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine-side position before ordering, since this part is specified for the outlet (engine side) location. Confirm the vehicle year, make, model, and engine configuration against the listed fitment for your Volvo or Ford application. Clean oil passages and inspect related timing components during replacement to help restore proper VVT operation.

Quality Assurance

INA states that its valve train components are engineered for the higher temperatures and pressure demands found in smaller modern engines, with the goal of supporting combustion control and engine service life.
