00:00Okay, so your check engine light is on, the car's idling rough, and you're losing oil somewhere,
00:04sounds familiar, right? I went down the rabbit hole of VVT solenoids and valve cover parts and
00:10came back with the 5 best deals I could find. This is my top 5 VVT solenoid and valve cover
00:16parts list, and trust me, these prices are hard to beat. First up, we've got the one-set original
00:22VVT valve variable control timing solenoid for Chevrolet Malibu, Captiva, Pontiac, GMC,
00:27and Opal and Thera, part numbers 1265-5420 and 1265-5421. This is an OEM-style replacement that
00:36just drops right in, so you're getting factory fit without the dealership markup. It's only 15 bucks,
00:43and with almost 5,000 sold and a perfect 5-star rating, people are clearly happy with it.
00:48If your Malibu or Captiva is throwing a timing code, this is the fix.
00:53Next, the engine valve cover rocker gasket kit for 1.6 HDI, 1.6D, and 1.6 TDCi engines that
01:01covers a
01:01ton of Peugeot, CitroΓ«n, Ford, and Volvo models. This is the kit you grab when you've got oil seeping
01:07around the valve cover and you just want it sealed up properly. $3. That's it. It sold nearly 5,000
01:16times
01:16with a 4.8 rating, and honestly, at that price you should just keep a spare in the garage.
01:22Coming in third is this JDM-style solenoid valve cover for Honda Accord, Civic, and Prelude with B,
01:27D, and H-Series VTC engines. If you're building a VTC setup or just want that clean JDM look under
01:34the hood, this is a budget-friendly way to get there. It's $4.06, rated 4.8 stars, and sold
01:41over
01:424,800 times. For the Honda crowd, this is a no-brainer. Number 4 is the 06F109257AVVT variable
01:51timing solenoid camshaft oil control valve for VW EOS, GTI, Golf, Audi A3, 4, and TT with the 2.0L
01:58engine, and yes, it also cross-references the 06F109257C. If you're getting that rough idle or AP0011
02:07code on your 2.0T, this is the part that fixes it. It's $9.46, 5 stars across the board,
02:15and with
02:15over 4,000 sold, the VW and Audi guys have already done the homework for you. And rounding out the
02:21list, the two PCS new 1263, 6524, and 1267, 1373 engine variable valve timing VVT solenoid for Buick
02:30Encore, Chevrolet Cruze, and GMC Terrain with the 1.4 Turbo. You get two solenoids in the pack,
02:36one for intake, one for exhaust so you can do the whole job in one shot instead of coming back
02:41a
02:41month later. $24 for the pair, perfect 5-star rating, over 4,000 sold. If you own a Cruze or
02:49Encore, this is the smart buy. Alright, that's the list all 5 links are in the description below,
