Goss VVT Solenoid VT170

The Goss VVT Solenoid VT170 is an engine management solenoid supplied as a single piece, with a unit of measure of each. It is listed under electrical parts and engine management, which makes it the sort of component you would identify carefully by part number before ordering. The stated part number is VT170, and the variant SKU is A5559140.

This solenoid is described as meeting or exceeding OE specifications and as a true genuine alternative. It is sourced from many of the world’s leading OES and aftermarket suppliers, with Goss reliability and durability noted in the product details. For buyers replacing a variable valve timing solenoid, that means the focus should stay on matching the exact application and part number rather than relying on appearance alone.

The product carries a 12 month warranty and is manufactured in China. As with any engine management solenoid, correct fitment depends on the vehicle’s specific VVT setup, so the key buying checkpoint is to confirm VT170 against the required part number and the application details for the vehicle being serviced.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, confirm that VT170 is the required VVT solenoid part number for the vehicle. No vehicle makes, models, or engine codes are listed here, so the safest approach is to match the part number against the original unit, the workshop parts listing, or the vehicle application details already on hand.

Variable valve timing solenoids are identified by their exact application rather than by a generic description alone. This item is listed simply as a Goss VVT solenoid, so the critical compatibility checkpoint is whether the vehicle uses the VT170 specification. If the old solenoid is still available, compare the part number and any matching identifiers before purchase.

The product is supplied as each, which suits a direct replacement job where only one solenoid is required. Its 12 month warranty provides a defined warranty period, but warranty coverage does not replace the need to verify fitment. As with any engine management part, correct installation and the right vehicle application matter just as much as the part quality itself.

Because this is an electrical engine management component, care should be taken when diagnosing the fault. A VVT solenoid can be part of a broader issue, so it is worth confirming the diagnosis and checking the vehicle’s application information before replacing the part. The product details provided here support identification by Goss branding, VT170 part number, and the stated solenoid type.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number VT170 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

Goss Vvt Solenoid. Part number VT170 should be checked first. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number VT170, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a solenoid in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed electrical specification should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Where no verified application list is available, the part number, mounting details, connector style, and published specifications should be used as the primary selection criteria.

In the absence of a verified fitment list, the safest approach is to compare the removed unit directly with the listed product details. That includes checking the housing style, pulley layout, regulator arrangement, and any visible identification numbers before supply is approved.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment by matching the Goss VT170 part number and the vehicle’s application details before purchase. No make, model, or engine-specific fitment is listed here, so do not rely on the product name alone.
