- Not a complete VANOS mechanism
What This Part Does
The VANOS solenoid valve controls oil flow used by the BMW variable valve timing system. Correct solenoid operation allows the engine management system to adjust camshaft timing as required. A failed solenoid can cause camshaft timing faults, rough idle, reduced low-speed torque and poor throttle response.
