A-Premium VVT Solenoid Kit 4-PC for GM V6 2.8–3.6L – OE-Fit, Ready-to-Install Replacements

The A-Premium 4-PC Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid set replaces four factory VVT actuators to restore proper cam timing control on compatible GM and allied-brand V6 engines.

If your vehicle is exhibiting rough idle, a check engine light for camshaft or timing codes, or reduced responsiveness, worn VVT solenoids can be a common cause. This A-Premium kit supplies four replacement solenoids engineered to match OE mounting points, connectors, and flow characteristics for a wide range of Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Pontiac, Saab and Saturn V6 applications. Each solenoid arrives ready to install with the electrical terminal and plunger assembly designed to work with factory oil passages and engine control signals.

Will these solenoids fit my vehicle?

Compatibility covers many GM-derived V6 engines from 2.8L to 3.6L across multiple model years. Check the included reference numbers and your vehicle’s part number to confirm fit before purchase.

• Matches part numbers: 12586722, 12588943, 12615613, 12626012, 12636175, 917-219, 917219.
• Common fit: Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Pontiac, Saab, Saturn models listed in the product fitment.
• Specific engines: V6 2.8L and 3.0L–3.6L applications where OEM solenoids are used.

How do these VVT solenoids improve engine behavior?

VVT solenoids regulate oil flow to camshaft phasers so the engine timing can adapt to driving conditions. Fresh solenoids help ensure smoother idle, more consistent throttle response, and fewer timing-related error codes when installed and used with clean engine oil and filters.

• Restores consistent oil control to cam phasers for accurate timing adjustments.
• Helps reduce erratic idling and hesitation caused by sticking valves.
• Can eliminate camshaft/timing-related fault codes if solenoids are the root cause.

What should I know about installation and maintenance?

Installation is typically straightforward for a mechanically inclined DIYer or professional technician: remove engine covers, disconnect the electrical connector, unbolt the old solenoid, and press in the new unit. Use proper torque, confirm connector fit, and change the engine oil and filter if contaminated oil caused the failure.

• Recommended: replace as a set when multiple solenoids show wear or codes.
• Inspect wiring harness and connectors for corrosion before installation.
• Change oil and filter if metal particles or sludge are present to protect the new solenoids.

What warranty and quality assurances come with this kit?

A-Premium backs this 4-piece VVT solenoid set with a one-year unlimited-mileage guarantee against manufacturing defects. The company emphasizes quality control and compatibility testing to ensure fit and function for the listed applications.

• One-year unlimited-mileage warranty for manufacturing defects.
• Engineered to match OE mounting, electrical, and flow characteristics.
• Sold as a four-piece kit for convenience on multi-valve V6 engines.

Who is this for: This A-Premium 4-PC VVT Solenoid kit is aimed at owners and technicians working on GM-based V6 vehicles (2.8L–3.6L) who need a reliable, direct-replacement solution. It’s a practical choice for those addressing camshaft timing faults, rough idle, or throttle irregularities where solenoid failure is suspected, and for anyone performing preventative maintenance on older engines with aging timing control components.
