Conversion Kits

An Innovative Aftermarket Solution
Conversion kit - Valeo

More vehicles in the last two decades were produced OE with a dual mass flywheel. Although the DMF has advantages, there are many disadvantages especially to replace in the aftermarket. Those disadvantages include:

  • Should not try to resurface upon failure, therefore, new expensive one is needed

  • Due to high price, many providers in the IAM will not stock it sufficiently leading to installers and end users to go directly to dealerships

  • High failure rate in some applications leading to warranty returns and a high level of customer dissatisfaction

To solve this troubling issue, Valeo has designed and brought Solid Flywheel Conversion Kits to the market. Now, with one of these kits, a failed DMF setup can be completely replaced. The key advantages include:

  • Cost savings of about 30% - 50%

  • Greater durability – no wear components in simpler solid flywheel (dual mass is complex with many parts that can cause failure)

  • Comparable performance

  • High level of customer satisfaction
