Keep valve-train lash automatically in check with the INA US Engine Valve Lifter VT00031, an INA VTC hydraulic pivot element that serves as a direct-fit replacement for the 1984-1993 Mercedes-Benz 190E and the 1987-1989 Mercedes-Benz 260E. As a hydraulic lifter, it uses engine oil pressure to take up clearance in the valve train and transfer the camshaft's motion to the valve, helping maintain quiet, consistent operation.

Cataloged for the intake and exhaust positions — this component is used at both the intake and exhaust valves on the listed applications.

  • Hydraulic pivot element: uses oil pressure to self-adjust valve-train clearance, transferring cam lobe motion to the valve.
  • Built for demanding conditions: INA valve-train components are made to handle the hotter temperatures and higher pressures of increasingly smaller engines.
  • Repair-grade solution: designed to meet growing demands on the combustion process and help extend engine service life.

Tapping or clatter that rises from the top end, especially at cold start, can be a sign that a hydraulic lifter may need replacing — diagnose the cause before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does the VT00031 valve lifter fit?

It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1984-1993 Mercedes-Benz 190E and the 1987-1989 Mercedes-Benz 260E. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm fitment for your vehicle.

Is this an intake or exhaust lifter?

It is cataloged for both the intake and exhaust positions on the listed applications, serving the valves on each side.

What does a hydraulic valve lifter do?

It uses engine oil pressure to automatically take up clearance in the valve train and transfer the camshaft lobe's motion to the valve for quiet, consistent operation.

Could a noisy top end mean I need this lifter?

Tapping or clatter from the top end, often worse at cold start, can point to a worn hydraulic lifter. Diagnose the cause first, as noise can have other sources.

What numbers does this lifter interchange with?

It cross-references FOL 82, 45-4006, 103 050 00 80, A 103 050 00 80, 10 18 0003, V30-0368-1, 265113 and 4200003100, including their punctuation-free forms.
