Dorman VVT Solutions

Extensive VVT solutions. Unparalleled quality and innovation.

Superior VVT parts from the aftermarket leader

VVT technology is growing. In fact, almost every new engine will soon incorporate VVT technology in multiple forms. That could be cause for concern if you're already waiting days for VVT parts from OE suppliers—or pulling apart engines only to find that additional hardware is needed. But there is a better way.

Dorman VVT solenoids and camshaft phasers are engineered to not only be durable and efficient, but eliminate flaws in OE designs. We also put installers' needs first by including the necessary parts and pieces required to do the job correctly. The result? One-visit repairs, fully restored performance, and countless hours saved for you and your clients.
