excellent service

found this site and parts were so much cheaper than competing sites so i figured why not try , even if the shipping is free i can wait for the part to save 100 bucks. To my shock i missed the order time for same day shipping but was surprised to find it shipped same day anyway, had the part in 3 days and it worked perfectly, my vehicle was up and running with in an hour. will definitely buy from again.
Correct part. Seems better built than OEM w filters

Didn't fix my idle issue, but it was a cheap first step to eliminate my rough idle. Fit my 07 Mini Cooper S. The online video was nice as well. Thanks!

These parts vary in price from under $50 to $200. We replaced both of them through 1A Auto at a reasonable cost and with their video, was easy to install. I do highly recommend a magnetic 10M socket to prevent you from losing the solenoid bolt.
Works perfect and fit correctly.

Needed 2 to complete the job. Stripped the heads on the bolts, took it to a shop to have them removed. Its been 5000 plus miles with no issues. Not bad for the least expensive ones.

Could be a fix for the P000A Fault Code
Patrick
March 29, 2022
Mainly purchased this to address an intermittent P000A Fault Code (cam timing delayed or not where it is expected to be at given time ... or something to that effect) that would come up shortly after cold engine startup or during moderate acceleration when engine is cold. Four or so months ago, the P000A fault code used to come up randomly about every 3 weeks apart. Lately in the past 6-7 weeks, it has come up nearly every week, maybe about 10 days between occurences. The OCV/Vanos solenoid is identified in various forums as a potential culprit, so I decided to replace it after checking that the cam position sensor was working fine. The solenoid itself arrived boxed and in a vacuum sealed packet. It appeared to already be moist with oil/prelubricated. Build quality is at least equal to the original Delphi unit in the car. It has been around three weeks since installing this solenoid and the fault code hasn't reappeared. Still keeping an eye on it but so far so good.

My 2013 MINI Cooper S would randomly go into engine malfunction mode after what felt like a misfire. It wasn't a misfire. I replaced the front and rear solenoids and haven't had any issues since. Make sure you have a mirror to find the rear hex bolt.
Great Replacement VANOS Solenoid for Mini Countryman S Without Paying Expensive OE Prices
chris
April 3, 2023
Affordable replacement VANOS solenoid - gets the job done without the added expense for an OE part that has a relatively short service life anyway. Replacement solenoid installed quickly and easily in only 10 minutes (2012 Countryman S exhaust solenoid). Connector fit perfectly and issue was solved. Car ran great again and is still doing so a few weeks later. Recommended.

I purchased two TRQ-branded VVT solenoids for my 2012 Mini Cooper S after experiencing rough idling during cold starts. The original OEM Pierburg VVT solenoids had 150,000 miles on them. After replacing them with the TRQ units, the cold idle issue disappeared, and my fuel economy increased from 23 to 28 mpg. I am thrilled with this purchase and recommend it if it is compatible with your vehicle. Hopefully, these will last.

I purchased this item and so I'm now able to post the answer to my own question: China. That said, the part appears to be of high quality, arrived in a vacuum-sealed plastic pouch inside a cardboard box with the TRQ branding. Appears machined out of billet metal (stainless steel? aluminum?) with microscreens on three of the tiers versus just a single one on the original part (original part was marked "Delphi.") Overall form factor does seem identical, as does the weight. Could perhaps believe this was made in the same factory as OE. Have driven the car just a few miles since install, but engine seems to idle more smoothly and be easier to start out in gear (standard transmission) with perhaps better low-RPM power. Had been getting occasional limp mode with pending P0015 codes, and so far, none yet.

I got these thinking it would fix the codes, but the timing chain was actually bad. It was stretched about 1/2. We fixed it and sold it. I did EVERYTHING to fix that car. Minis are great, but only when theyre working. Not trying to be a wet blanket, just saying be careful. These did work though. Very easy to replace and it did sound better. The codes didnt go away thoughdue to timing belt. What a mess! Good luck!

Are you sure it's the vanos? If it's plugged up, it would cause issue. If it's clean you may have a timing issue. If the chain is too tight or too loose it affects how far the cam moves.
