Ebay solenoids are a bit hit and miss. Go genuine or at the least, a pair off a donor car with low km.

The solenoids are identical and can be swapped to see if the fault migrates.

Suitable donors include N52 and N54 so there's heaps out there. I ended up buying a pair of genuine ones when i was in USA this year. Local prices are ridiculous and Repco prices for Dormans have shot up since I returned a pair that my motor couldn't make friends with.
