2014 Passat Variable Cam Solenoid Replacement
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In this video, we show you how to replace the variable cam solenoid on a 2014 Passat. This is a common problem with these cars and can cause rough running, misfires, and other issues. The repair is simple and takes only about 30 minutes. @RastamanBuilds #passat #solenoid

This video was exactly what I needed to see. All I needed to know was if I could replace and do it myself. It looks like I will be able to! 🙂
Great video, fixed my 2014 Passat after 3 failed trips to the mechanic!
Thank you for documenting this. Valuable info.

That’s the magnet, what about the camshaft solenoid in there?
Great presentation

Is it Passat b8 110kw?
Do we have to drain the oil so it doesn’t spill or can we work on it without draining the oil?

Is there a link to where I can buy the part? I wanna make sure I don’t buy the wrong thing.

Hello, is this as simple as replacing or do I need to get the timing reprogrammed

Hey man, I'm having a lot of trouble busting this thing out. Every video I watch it's done so easy, but mine is locked in. I know it's reverse threaded so it's not that. It just won't budge when I move it, feels like I'm turning the engine trying. Any advice?
Any suggestions for 2016 psssat SE ,, is it the same and if anyone can mention the part number

At this point we need to scan for codes to make sure it is not the anti theft system

I’m a automotive technician and watching your video is very impressive as a yard man….you are not just a parts changer,swearing at the manufacture or breaking stuff.you actually equipped yourself with the knowledge whether through experience or research

O ring comes with the part together or we have to buy it separately?

Why would you need to do that? Unless stripped. Just tighten it down.
What is the reason for the change?
