What do the valves in my Mercedes-Benz do?
There are many under the hood of your vehicle -- almost as many as it has systems -- and they're responsible for controlling the flow of fluids by opening and closing at different times. One of their jobs is to regulate the amount of air and fuel sent to the engine cylinders in your Mercedes-Benz during the combustion process. It's important that valves remain in top condition to be able to do this effectively.
How can I tell if a valve in my Mercedes-Benz is bad?
As they've got sleeves and seals to prevent different gases or fluids from escaping and causing problems, the signs they're failing may include damaged sleeves or broken seals. Otherwise, look for blue smoke coming out of the exhaust pipe; it can indicate that the seals are worn and that oil's getting into the combustion chamber and mixing with fuel. Other symptoms include engine power loss and ticking noises. In any such case, you should inspect the valves and replace any problematic ones as soon as possible; a Mercedes-Benz service center can help. Just be sure to use OEM replacements.
Why buy OEM valves for Mercedes-Benz vs. aftermarket?
They're Mercedes-Benz quality, designed to fit and work right the first time, and unlike some aftermarket valves, they won't void any factory warranty your ride has left. Most even carry manufacturer warranties of their own; you can buy with confidence.
