DMF conversion kits offer a cost effective alternative when it comes to dual mass flywheel replacement. However, there are many low quality imports available in this area so the mechanic needs to be on his guard. Valeo Conversion Kits are far removed from these low quality kits offering an effective an economical replacement that has performance comparable to the original DMF. Due to Valeo’s development of a long travel damper, dual mass flywheels can be replaced with a single mass flywheel kit with complete confidence. This technology has been so successful in the independent workshops that it’s being used as an alternative to DMF by the OEMs.


Dual mass fly wheels have been fitted as OE on many cars in recent years. While original DMF technology does have some advantages, it also has major disadvantages when an aftermarket replacement is required.

DMF replacements tend to be very expensive and can have availability issues which often mean independent garages are forced to buy expensive main dealer parts. Replacement DMF’s can also be hard to fit and more prone to failure.

To solve this problem Valeo offers a range of top quality Solid Flywheel Conversion Kits allowing a failed DMF setup to be completely replaced. The key advantages include of this are, a very significant cost savings of around 30% - 50% and greater long term durability. A solid kit has no wear components, where as a dual mass flywheel is complex with many parts that can cause failure. Performance between the two potential replacements is also comparable.

Valeo Conversion Kits are now in their 10th year in the Irish aftermarket with thousands of satisfied customers. The conversion kit range includes more than 60 references meaning comprehensive coverage of the market.

Kits available cover; Audi/Volkswagen/Skoda/Seat, Ford/Mazda, Citroen/Peugeot, Mercedes, BMW/Mini, Renault, Iveco, Fiat and many more. Specific application lists can be found in the Valeo clutch catalogue or on the Valeo web catalogue at: www.valeoservice.co.uk
