About Oil Control Valve The oil control valve is a component in the car system that controls the flow of oil into the engine’s camshaft. It is regulated by the engine control unit, which manages the timing of the oil control valve to increase engine performance as much as possible. The oil control valve has several functions that are vital, including saving fuel usage, reducing gas emissions generated by the vehicle, and improving engine performance as efficiently as possible.

Reference OEM Number: 2301332323871486 Fit for the Following Models: Replacement for Vol-vo D13 MA-CK Package Content: 1x Oil Thermostat Control Valve Symptoms Of A Bad Oil Control Valve Indicating Check Engine Light With the help of the Electronic Control Unit (ECU), with which modern vehicles are equipped, you can notice any unusual activity going on in your vehicle via the check engine light. As a result, when the Oil Control Valve is not working properly, the check engine light will come on your dashboard. Rough Idling The VVT solenoid adjusts the camshaft timing when your car is running at idle. This is because the idling should be as smooth as possible. A very retarded camshaft timing will make it very difficult for the engine to not drop too low on RPM and stall. If you notice strange idling problems with your car, it can be because of a faulty Oil Control Valve. Increased Fuel Consumption Oil Control Valve manages the valves’ opening and closing times to ensure that efficient fuel consumption is maintained. Any malfunction of the Oil Control Valve is therefore certain to result in efficient fuel consumption. So if you notice the smell of unburned fuel and a significant drop or increase in your average fuel consumption, it is very likely that your variable valve timing sensor is defective. Rough Acceleration If Oil Control Valve fails, you may find it causing your acceleration to become rough, and it might even cause misfires when accelerating. If you have rough acceleration together with a check engine light on your dashboard, it could absolutely be due to a faulty Oil Control Valve. Product Details:
