You swapped both solenoids with what? If you used OEM and the connectors and wiring is good then it's time for a new inlet adjustment unit with new wheel. Pull VC off and have a look.

Just buy new ones. They are old at this point. I've had the issue long ago and cleaning them didn't really fix it, but new ones did.
