00:00If your check engine light is on and your engine's running rough,
00:03a bad VVT solenoid could be the culprit and replacing it doesn't have to break the bank.
00:08I went through the best-selling options online and found the top 5 VVT solenoids
00:12for engine oil control that people are actually buying and loving.
00:16Let's get into it.
00:18First up, this pair of VVT solenoids for Chevrolet Cobalt, Captiva, HHR, Impala,
00:24and Malibu owners. What makes this set stand out is that you get both solenoids in one box,
00:29part numbers 1265, 5420, and 1265, 5421, so you can knock out the whole job in one shot instead
00:36of ordering twice. It's priced at just $23.95, and with nearly 4,600 sold and a 4.9 rating,
00:45it's clearly doing something right. If you're chasing that P0010 or P0011 code on a GM engine,
00:52this is a no-brainer. Next, for all the Nissan folks, this VVT solenoid fits the Ultima 2013
00:59to 2017 and the Rogue 2014 to 2019. The best part here is the fitment, it cross-references
01:06OEM numbers 237963TA1A, 237963TA4A, and 916-922, so you know it's the right part before you even
01:16pop the hood. At $18.39 with a perfect 5-star rating and over 4,500 sold, this is one
01:23of the
01:24most trusted budget options out there. If your Ultima or Rogue feels sluggish off the line,
01:29this could bring it right back to life. Coming in third, we've got a solenoid built
01:34for the Toyota and Lexus crowd, think GS430, GX470, LS400, LS430, LX470, and SC430.
01:43This one covers both the 15330-0F010 and 15340-0F010 part numbers, which means it works on either
01:51side of the engine, and that kind of flexibility is hard to find. It runs $27.65, and with over
01:594,500
02:00units sold at a 4.6 rating, buyers are clearly happy. Lexus parts usually cost a fortune, so getting a
02:07quality solenoid at this price is a genuine steal. Fourth on the list is the budget champion of EBT
02:13oil control valve for the Mitsubishi Mirage 2014 and 2015, part number 1028A104. Here's the headline,
02:21it's only $8.22. That's less than a fast food dinner, and it's sitting at a perfect 5-star
02:28rating with more than 4,200 sold. If you drive a Mirage and you're getting rough idling or poor fuel
02:34economy, this is the cheapest way to test the fix before spending big at a shop. And rounding out
02:40the top 5, this 2-pack of VVD solenoids for the Chevrolet Cruze 1.6 and 1.8, plus Vauxhall
02:46and Opel
02:46Astra and Zephira, part number 5556-7050. Getting 2 solenoids for $19 is outstanding value,
02:55especially with a flawless 5-star rating and over 4,100 sold. These engines are known for clogged
03:01solenoids, so having a spare set on hand is just smart ownership. So there you have it,
03:065 solid, affordable VDT solenoids that real buyers are trusting every day.
