Kinwrdsn VVT Solenoid for Nissan & Infiniti – Direct-Fit 916725 Replacement, Restores Idle & Timing Control

Kinwrdsn’s Variable Valve Timing (VVT) solenoid is a direct-fit replacement for many Nissan and Infiniti V6/V8/L4 engines, designed to restore valve timing control and resolve related check-engine codes.

If your Nissan or Infiniti is showing reduced power, rough idling, or throwing timing-related fault codes, a failing VVT solenoid (also called a camshaft timing actuator) is a common cause. This Kinwrdsn unit matches OEM reference numbers including 916-725 / 916725 and fits a wide range of model years and engine sizes, providing a plug-and-play replacement without major modifications.

How will installing this solenoid affect drivability and error codes?

Replacing a worn or faulty VVT solenoid can stop timing-related fault codes and often improves idling and throttle response. While results depend on the vehicle’s overall condition, a correct-fit replacement typically restores smoother operation and removes CEL warnings tied to cam timing.

• Common codes addressed: P0010, P0011, P0013, P0014 (camshaft timing performance/position)
• Improves idle stability and throttle smoothness when timing control was disrupted
• Restores hydraulic control of cam phasing when oil passages and solenoid valve are functioning

Is installation difficult and what should I check before replacing the part?

The Kinwrdsn VVT solenoid is a direct-replacement, plug-and-play component designed for straightforward installation using basic tools. Before replacing, scan for codes, verify the part number and model fitment, and ensure engine oil is clean to avoid contaminating the new solenoid.

• Confirm fitment using year/make/model and OEM references: 916-725, VVT250, TS1172, VVS247
• Recommended: clear diagnostic trouble codes after installation and test drive
• Tip: change oil if it is degraded to protect the new solenoid and timing system

What quality and part references does this Kinwrdsn replacement use?

The unit is manufactured to match common OEM specifications and cross-references multiple part numbers used across Nissan/Infiniti service catalogs. It’s built to meet the sealing, electrical connector, and hydraulic valve requirements expected for direct swaps.

• Cross-references: 916-725, 916725, VVT250, TS1172, VVS247, VTS1153, 2VTS0269, 237963RC0A
• Designed for correct electrical plug fit and oil passage alignment
• Intended as a one-to-one replacement without adapter kits

Who is this for: This Kinwrdsn VVT solenoid is for DIY mechanics and professional technicians working on Nissan and Infiniti vehicles experiencing cam timing faults, rough idling, or reduced engine responsiveness. It’s also suitable for owners who prefer an OEM-referenced replacement part to restore normal engine operation—just verify year, make, model and engine size against the fitment list before ordering.
