Engine Oil Control Valve Solenoid – 06E103697K | VVT Solenoid for 1.8 & 2.0 TFSI Engines

Keep your variable valve timing system performing at its best with this direct-fit Engine Oil Control Valve Solenoid (OE# 06E103697K). Engineered from premium aluminum and high-strength ABS plastic, this VVT solenoid delivers precise camshaft timing control for improved engine response and fuel efficiency. Made in Mainland China.

Why Upgrade Your VVT Solenoid?

The variable valve timing (VVT) solenoid automatically fine-tunes motor control, allowing the inlet and outlet camshafts to advance or retard their positions. A properly functioning solenoid helps your engine operate more efficiently, optimizing combustion and supporting better fuel economy. A worn or faulty solenoid can cause rough idling, sluggish acceleration, and increased fuel consumption — replacing it with a quality unit restores smooth, responsive engine performance.
