Product Description
Camshaft Control Valve 06H109257A
The Camshaft Control Valve (N205 Valve) with OEM reference number 06H109257A is a verified direct-fit replacement for a wide range of Audi and Volkswagen vehicles equipped with the 2.0T TSI / TFSI engine (EA888 Gen2).
Product Overview
This solenoid is a critical component of the engine's variable valve timing (VVT) system, responsible for controlling the flow of oil to the camshaft adjuster to alter valve timing. By regulating oil pressure to the camshaft phaser, this valve allows the ECU to advance or retard cam timing dynamically based on RPM and load conditions, optimizing engine performance across the entire rev range.
Critical Fitment Note: This valve is specifically designed for TSI / TFSI engines (EA888 Gen2) and is commonly referred to as the N205 valve. It is located between the camshaft bridge and the intake camshaft.

Failure Symptoms
| Symptom | Description |
|---|---|
| Check Engine Light | DTCs related to the VVT system - common codes include P0011, P0014, or P0016 |
| Poor Engine Performance | Poor acceleration, hesitation, or overall reduced power |
| Rough or Unstable Idling | Engine struggles to maintain a consistent RPM |
| Reduced Fuel Economy | Decreased gas mileage |
| Difficulty Cold-Starting | Extended cranking time |
| Engine Knocking | Knocking under acceleration |
Ignoring a failing camshaft control valve can lead to:
- Decreased fuel economy and rough engine operation
- Premature wear on VVT components
- Potential engine damage from incorrect valve timing
- Catalytic converter damage from improper fuel mixture

Installation & Maintenance Recommendations
IMPORTANT: Camshaft control valve replacement requires mechanical competence. Professional installation recommended.
When to Replace:
- Check Engine Light with VVT-related fault codes (P0011, P0014, P0016)
- Poor acceleration, hesitation, or reduced power
- Rough or unstable idling
- Decreased fuel economy
- As preventive maintenance on high-mileage vehicles
Installation Guidelines (Reference Audi workshop manual for complete steps):
- Safety first - allow engine to cool completely before starting work
- Disconnect battery negative terminal
- Locate the N205 valve on the engine - between the camshaft bridge and intake camshaft
- Disconnect the electrical connector
- Remove the mounting bolt(s) securing the valve
- Carefully remove the old valve - note the position of O-rings and seals
- Compare the new valve with the old unit - verify part number (06H109257A) matches
- Inspect the valve bore for debris or sludge - clean if necessary
- Install new O-rings and seals (recommended to replace)
- Install the new valve into position
- Torque mounting bolt(s) to manufacturer specification
- Reconnect the electrical connector
- Reconnect battery
- Clear fault codes with a diagnostic scan tool
- Start engine and verify proper operation - no Check Engine Light, smooth idle, responsive acceleration
Pro Tips:
- If the valve failed due to dirty engine oil or debris blockage, change the engine oil and filter
- Dirty engine oil can cause blockages in the valve - regular oil changes prevent premature failure
- Use only OEM or OEM-grade replacement parts for critical engine components
- This part is a known failure point on EA888 engines - consider replacing preventively
