Accord VVT Solenoid 2003-2011 OEM 917-277

This Dorman vvt solenoid for 2003-2011 Honda Accord restores correct oil-pressure control to the cam phaser and clears P0011/P0014 codes.

The variable valve timing solenoid controls oil pressure to the cam phaser. A stuck solenoid or a clogged screen produces cold-start rattle from the timing chain area and diagnostic codes like P0011 or P0014.

Verify your fitment with the year, make, model, and trim of your vehicle before ordering. If you are not sure, contact us with your VIN or vehicle configuration and we will match the correct part to your application before you buy.

Cross-Reference

Manufacturer part number 917-277. This is a Dorman catalog part. Confirm the OE reference for your vehicle matches before installing.

Why You Might Need This

Cold-start rattle from the timing chain area, P0011 or P0014 codes, or a check-engine light that clears at idle and comes back under load usually point to a stuck VVT solenoid or clogged screen.

Installation Notes

Clear diagnostic codes with a scan tool after installation. Confirm the solenoid screen is clean (some VVT failures are a clogged screen rather than a bad solenoid); replace both if in doubt.
