BMW VANOS Solenoid Actuator - VNE 11367593719

Product Information

An Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid is an essential component of an engine's variable valve timing system. It controls the flow of oil to the VVT system, which adjusts the timing of the opening and closing of the engine's intake and exhaust valves. This adjustment allows for optimal engine performance, improved fuel efficiency, and reduced emissions by enabling the engine to operate more efficiently across different RPM ranges.

• Check Engine Light: A malfunctioning VVT solenoid often triggers the Check Engine light. Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) related to the VVT system may be stored in the vehicle's onboard diagnostics, indicating an issue with the solenoid or related components
• Poor Engine Performance: If the VVT solenoid is failing, it can cause the engine to experience poor acceleration, hesitation, or overall reduced power. This is often due to incorrect valve timing affecting the engine's ability to breathe properly
• Rough Idling: A faulty VVT solenoid can result in unstable or rough idling, as the engine may struggle to maintain a consistent RPM due to improper valve timing adjustments

About VNE

VNE GmbH was founded in 2001 by Volker Natorp in Hamburg, Germany. Volker has a long, storied history in the automotive field. He began his career in the 1970s working for Wulf Gaertner and in the 1990s eventually branched out on his own to start his own sales repping agency. During that time, he represented TMD Friction (Pagid/Textar) and managed all of the North American sales for them and eventually added Schaeffler Automotive to his roster.

In 2007, VNE GmbH relocated to Ganderkesee, Germany and was renamed VNE Automotive GmbH & Co. With continuous growth, the decision was made to solely focus on developing VNE Automotive and, in 2014, the focus became reality with the commissioning of a new warehouse and office space. Today, VNE Automotive prides itself on never having followed the aftermarket trend. VNE Automotive operates in a highly specialized, niche product sector, by only offering OEM automotive spare parts to more than 50 countries worldwide. This is evident from the unique, and sometimes hard to find, product groups spanning engine management, body electrical, and brake systems.
