BMW VANOS solenoid for N55/S63/N63

If your VANOS solenoid has failed, you could experience a poor running condition as well as a loss of power. Two required per car.

Controls variable camshaft timing, a common failure item on higher mileage vehicles, includes replacement o-ring set

This solenoid controls oil flow to the VANOS adjustment unit. One solenoid controls one VANOS adjustment unit. This solenoid is an updated design, introduced in the N55 engine, which includes integrated non-return valves and screens which were previously installed separately on the cylinder head. This technical update allows for fewer oil passages in the cylinder head and with other major improvements to the VANOS hubs allow for quicker adjustment times. The integrated screen filter in these solenoids prevents sticking due to particles in oil.

Codes typically triggered by this solenoid valve are:

• 2A9A Cam sensor, inlet signal invalid for synchronization

• 2A98 (P0016) Crankshaft intake correlation value outside ref range

• 2A82 intake VANOS jammed mechanically

• 2A9B exhaust camshaft sensor signal invalid for synchronization

• 2A99 (P0017) Crankshaft position sensor and exhaust camshaft, correlation - value outside reference range

• 2A87 exhaust VANOS jammed mechanically
