I've had the Valeos too and they are really good. The only thing I didn't like about them is extremely OCD - the "Valeo" logo on them is bright white and it's upside down when the blade is properly installed.
I found these to be the best. Bought them last November and still going strong.
Both Valeo and Bosch are good brands. I’ve never owned a Mercedes, but both Valeo/Bosch are installed in various BMWs from the factory.
If you're going with aftermarket go with Valeo brand it works better than 3M in budget range.
Valeo HD 100% is the only option you should consider based on your driving habits. It can hold more power than stock, and won’t cause the annoying rattles a single mass flywheel setup will cause.
I've read lots of reviews about how the flywheel chatters horribly. I never noticed it on this car, it's very quiet, though I do have OEM mounts. I was surprised to find it wasn't a DMF. Just something to consider
I had to buy a replacement remanufactured alternator (Valeo 120A one) and it was a straight replacement that solved the problem.
A bearing went in our original alternator so I replaced it with a Valeo brand and it's pretty loud when it clicks on. It is loud enough that I'm wondering if I got a bad alternator --or is this normal??
It's the typical whirl or whurr noise --it's silent, and then you can hear the whirl or whurr noise when the alternator clicks on. It seems mechanically and electrically fine: It's doing what it should be doing electrically (charging, correct voltage, the battery is happy, the car runs better with this new alternator, etc.). It's just loud.
I've just bought a Valeo one, and it worked for about a week but then died.
I manual swapped the car myself and used a stock clutch fork, [this](https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=1326451&cc=1134010&pt=1993&jsn=18&_nck=HllVxRCey1%2B2aVRDo41oQXhbegy63eH0ZQw4Qu2hbnVNrSa9QiFztXFB8fAiad4cNnjyg1Wh75cdlSCw6212A%2BF7sjOu10NFmttFaSg9TgmJ79BOXctBfgOsvzChLR%2FJb1t2NdrLb7j5Izi9VCWKZEoPuIDDobaM7Nivo%2FfSWA9mToJBXGAQcYvUFR0tXWI0vw63Op9RQQBMSocBR2FUeL%2BQPlhbXGbm4WTSnmuf%2BkU50Z9HUqkperMi8C8R6rldqwLO%2Fm5akTCRGFR%2B9gblQ3PsI4JdJiCZS%2FNe5MkyloNGyW1guyER%2F1sHrCMGt%2F8g) Valeo kit and [this](https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=8116052&cc=1134010&pt=1972&jsn=13) cable. Right from the start it was very heavy and I just put up with it but I've recently been in another fox which had a much lighter pedal, inline with what i'm used to with cable clutches.
