A-Premium 2-PC Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) Control Solenoid Compatible with Ford, Lincoln and Mercury Vehicles - 4.6L 5.4L 3V Engine - Replaces 8L3Z-6M280-B

2006 ford expedition 5.4 3V.Had all intermittent codes for random misfire, #5&7 cylinder misfire. Lean bank 2, retarded timing bank 2, would go into safe mode on occasion and not shift or go above about 10 mph.Installed the first in bank 2, and probed was resolved. Installed the other as well in bank 1 and engine was back to life like at least a year younger in performance.Noticed old solenoids had slight rattle when removed and shaken and these did not. Guessing spring failure on old ones.Just have about 150 miles on these, do not know the longevity they will last, but none in stock at parts store, these were 1/4 price of just one and got overnight. So far so good, definitely work, definitely quick and reasonably priced.Fit well and easy to install. Overall I rate these a good product. The only change is the screw to mount them is not secured to the solenoid like OEM. Have to make sure not to drop in valve cover. Wasn’t difficult, but possible.

Hice la compra hace aproximadamente 3 meses, cuando llego que hice la comparación con el original en peso, calidad de materiales y funcionalidad era las misma, lo utilizamos para instalarlos en una FORD EXPLORER 4.6 3V 2008, el funcionamiento perfecto, la aplicación exacta, agregando que la presentación de la pieza de una calidad excelente, el carro ya tiene 3000 kilómetros recorrido y todo perfecto, aparte el precio por el par de solenoides el super bajo para la calidad que ofrece.

All 4 bank 2 cylinders had misfire codes, plus a few more. 8 timing codes in all. Installed one on the bank 2 side, all codes resolved. Reason I didn't give 5 stars is that the original the screw is fixed in the solenoid so it can't come out and fall out resulting in the need to remove the valve cover. This one the screw can come out. Dealing with the stress of not slipping and creating a new problem makes it less than perfect. But it is a small trade off on all the money saved.

Sorry to say but these only lasted about two weeks before having to replace again. Would not buy these for your car

It was easy to install, and set at a decent price!

The parts fit fine, have held up, and were installed in around six hours by our mechanic. They were more cost efficient than buying locally. By a decent amount.

Easy to install and working great

I bought both banks VTC solenoid. They were cheap, but they did not solve the problem. When I put it on I got check light is on P0012 I initially did not had this problem. The solenoids were too old when I took it apart and I thought I replace it not to have a problem in the future but these were so cheap. They did not solve the problem they don’t actuate I recommend don’t buy it unless you want to do the job twice get the solenoids from Ford.
