Dorman 916-879 Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid
Engine VVT Solenoid for VW and Audi
Dorman 916-879 is a replacement engine variable valve timing (VVT) solenoid built to match the original part’s fit and function. It is engineered for 12-volt operation and uses a plug-and-socket electrical connection for straightforward replacement on select Audi and Volkswagen applications.
Compatible With 2009-2019 Audi and Volkswagen models including Audi A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8, Q5, RS7, TT, and Volkswagen Beetle, CC, Eos, Golf, GTI, Jetta, Passat CC, Tiguan, and Golf R. This part number, 916-879, is a direct-fit style solution for vehicles that use a solenoid-only VVT setup at the oil pan on many listed applications.
- 12-volt electromagnetic VVT solenoid design
- Plastic housing with male plug-and-socket connector
- 2-terminal electrical connection
- Standard replacement grade for select OE-style applications
- Precision-engineered to match original fit and function
- Tested for proper performance before release
Detailed Product Overview
Dorman 916-879 is intended for drivers and technicians replacing a worn or malfunctioning engine variable valve timing solenoid on select Volkswagen and Audi engines. The solenoid helps control oil flow to the VVT system, which is critical for proper cam timing response. When the original unit begins to fail, drivability and engine performance can suffer. This replacement solenoid is built from quality materials for long service life and is designed as a standard replacement for the original component. Cross-reference part numbers include Spectra Premium VTS1194 and OE-style references such as 06H115243E for the same application.
Common Problems This Part Can Address
- Check engine light related to VVT or cam timing faults
- Rough idle or inconsistent engine operation
- Reduced throttle response from delayed valve timing control
- Oil control issues affecting VVT solenoid performance
- Failure of the original solenoid on oil-pan-mounted applications
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the connector style, terminal count, and engine application before installation. This solenoid uses a plug-and-socket connector with one electrical connector and is listed for solenoid-only positions on the specified Audi and Volkswagen vehicles. Confirm the exact model year and notes, including oil-pan-mounted applications and VIN-specific coverage where listed, before ordering or replacing the part.
Quality Assurance
Dorman manufactures this VVT solenoid as a precision-engineered replacement and tests it for proper performance. The part is built with quality materials to support long service life in the intended Audi and Volkswagen applications.
