    Just some sprinter observations

    It did confirm a dead positioner/motor. When I unclipped the top section from the EGR I was able to confirm it wasn't siezed...although it may be the motor, I didn't apply voltage to the lower section to test yet

    Just some sprinter observations

    Ok Turtle...heres another hypothetical...as you know, the SKREEM module on sprinters will cause a "Start Error" when something goes wrong...leaving you with a dead Sprinter that needs modules shipped out at great expense, or a dealer repair at even greater expense. It's on my terror list of...

    Just some sprinter observations

    Well, it's not legal for road use so I wanted to keep it off this site. There are heavy fines for making unauthorized modifications to your emissions system. Just don't go searching for an egr bypass mod on mercedes club dot org dot UK, and do something silly like taking the guts out of the...

    Cargo Van Sprinter 05

    Post it when you figure it out. That was one of the reasons I stopped driving my million mile ford diesel, but the restarts could take up to an hour of sitting...like it had no fuel at all...and no engine light

    How many Miles do Ford Alternators last?

    My single longest lasting replacement one was the Import Direct brand from O'Reillys auto parts...just about 400,000 miles...no idea why, probably a fluke but they're cheap GOOD junk All my Ford alternators would fail between 300,000 to 400,000 if we're talking original...buy the spare now and...

    Gauges what do you use

    I really like the idea of knowing what's up before the idiot light tells me the engine / tranny is fried. This isn't vehicle specific...what gauges did you add and why? Here's what I like, what do you run...

    New Sprinter scan tool

    If you have this tool, do the Internet update. Many new screens and Sprinter modules covered, and it goes alongside the old software so no functionality is lost. (I used the newer tool updater for MB II) I was able to see all the climate control sensors, my temp on the highway with windows down...
