Valeo Commercial Vehicle Parts Guide: Clutch, Lighting and Cooling Systems

Valeo commercial vehicle parts span several systems, so a purchasing request needs more detail than the brand and vehicle model. Clutch components, lamps, cooling parts and electrical items may change by production date, engine, gearbox, installed side or OE specification. The complete Valeo or OE reference is therefore the best starting point.

This guide explains the structure of the Valeo range available from MSP Export and the information buyers should provide. Browse the main VALEO collection, clutch components, lighting, cooling systems and electrical and cab components.

Valeo product groups in our catalogue

  • Clutch components: clutch kits, release bearings and related actuation parts according to application.
  • Lighting: headlamps, fog lamps and indicator lamps with vehicle-specific references.
  • Cooling systems: selected components used within engine and cab thermal management.
  • Electrical and cab components: application-specific equipment requiring accurate connector and vehicle checks.
  • Brake components: selected references included within the wider commercial-vehicle catalogue.

Valeo’s official commercial-vehicle clutch catalogue is organized by vehicle application, Valeo reference, technical characteristics and cross references. That structure illustrates why a complete part number and vehicle specification are essential for reliable identification.

How to prepare a clutch enquiry

For clutch components, provide the Valeo or OE number, vehicle make and model, engine, gearbox, production year and VIN or chassis details. If parts have already been removed, photograph the friction disc, cover assembly, release bearing and any readable markings. Record diameters and spline information only as supporting data; measurements alone should not replace application verification.

One catalogue example is the Valeo 079806 clutch release bearing. Even a simple-looking bearing must be matched to the correct clutch and actuation system.

Lighting identification

Vehicle-specific lamps can differ by side, connector, motor, lens design and market specification. Send front and rear photographs, confirm the installed side and include the complete number from the housing. Catalogue examples include the Valeo 045158 fog lamp and Valeo 045159 fog lamp.

Do not treat paired left and right references as interchangeable. Verify the installed position and vehicle data before ordering.

Cooling and electrical components

Cooling-system parts require a match based on vehicle, engine, dimensions, connections and mounting arrangement. Electrical and cab components also require connector photographs and a clear description of the installed equipment. When the old part number is unavailable, provide VIN data and multiple detailed photographs rather than a single overall image.

A practical Valeo part-identification workflow

  1. Record the complete Valeo and OE references.
  2. Confirm vehicle make, model, year, engine and gearbox.
  3. Add VIN or chassis data where the application remains uncertain.
  4. Photograph labels, connectors, mounting points and both sides of the component.
  5. State left or right orientation for lighting and other side-specific products.
  6. List all related components required for the same repair.
  7. Provide quantity and shipping destination for the B2B quotation.

Common sourcing mistakes

Ordering a clutch from diameter alone

Disc diameter is only one characteristic. Hub splines, cover design, release system and vehicle application must also match.

Using a shortened part number

Omitted digits or suffixes can point to a different product. Include a label photograph whenever possible.

Requesting only the visibly damaged component

A complete repair may require associated actuation, fastening, cooling or electrical items. A structured multi-reference list helps avoid repeated procurement cycles.

Assuming one model has one configuration

Commercial vehicles can use different equipment according to production date, engine, gearbox, market and optional specification. Verify the exact vehicle rather than relying only on the model name.

Valeo sourcing for distributors and workshops

MSP Export supports multi-reference B2B quotations for commercial vehicle distributors, fleets and workshops. Send a spreadsheet containing Valeo or OE references, descriptions, quantities and destination. Product photographs can be named with the corresponding row number to simplify identification.

Safety and installation note

Clutch, lighting, cooling and electrical work can affect vehicle safety and reliability. Installation and system diagnosis must follow the current Valeo and vehicle-manufacturer instructions and be carried out by qualified technicians.
