Today I received a recall on my Sprinter. Seems that a reprogramming of the engine control unit is in need of updating. The MAF if fails, the check engine light will not illuminate or store error codes in the ECU. Anyone else? Sent from my iPhone using EO Forums

I ask this question on another site, got nothing so far. I've been looking around for approved transmission fluid. Came across Valvoline MaxLife ATF Ful Synthetic Spec sheet shows 2003- 2009 Sprinter NAG1 Mopar P/n 05127382AA, MB NAG1, Shell ATF 3403 M115 Same specs in my owners manual. Auto...

Sprinter Air box fire, not mine. But, it may have over heated due to blocking your air door open, causing over heating?

If you have never Fluffed your fire extinguisher you may need to do so. It is easy to do. Over time the powder settles and can become packed and may not work when needed. Before you Fluff it Inspect the gauge to ensure it is charged correctly. If not, recharge or replace. Look inside the...

This is weird. Really Weird. My A/c is blowing hot air from the drivers vent. At the vent 89 degrees, out side temp is 94. However, the passenger side blowing 63 with 94 degrees outside. The top left vent is warmer air flow from the top right vent. Any A/c pros out there?

Last month I had a belt tensioner break. It broke on the pulley arm. Had all new pulleys and belt, tensioner replaced. Last week I had my battery light flash at me. I took the new belt off and found chunks out of the ribs. Placed a small screw driver in the fan of the alternator to test the...

I did a side by side comparison on a Sprinter vs a Sprinter wanna be the other day. The unit was a 2012 Aero Cell Ford, or a Cargo Max can't remember, with a 12 foot box. We both filled up at the same place. We agreed to fill up in 200 miles. I put 9 gallons in at a cost of 32.85 He put 18.9...

I was 8 miles from my drop off Sat., and had a blow-out on right front. The tire was completly gone, all but the inner side wall. Long story short. I went to bell Tire and they didn't have the tire that matched the rest. So I headed to Discount Tire. Little young dude met me before I stopped...

Went to this Dodge place in Toledo yesterday, (yeah, I know), had a fuel leak somewhere. They couldn't find it. There it is, top hose of the injector pump. Oh, so it is. Well, we can put on new clamps if you want....oh boy. About 2hours and 120 bucks later I come back to the J. This morning, I...

My first encounter- Service writer " Seems your top pulley is worn out, has no edges or groves." replaced with one that has edge and groves, also a little bit bigger. (wrong one for this engine) If you are having- tensor failure, belts breaking, idle pulley failure, then check that top right...

We read a lot about problems with model years from 03 to 08. I don't remember reading any problems with the 2009 models. Anyone here have a 2009 Sprinter? Have you had any problems? If so, please post something about them. Good or Bad. Thanks.

Anyone know how to adjust the time out on a QC? I'm starting to have dead battery after a day or so without starting the engine. My battery is about a year old or less. It stays on for hours.....3 hours so far with engine off and it's still on.

Pulled into truck stop this morning for fuel and coffee. When I backed out, the Sprinter wouldn't move at first. Had to really push it to get it to move. hum?, Well, when I turned onto the road and was getting up to speed- thumpthumpthump, shake, rattle and thumps! Went back to the J and...

So, I was sitting in Haw River last week, bulling around with a fellow in a cargo van. He was telling me what he did on the inside to make life easy on he and his wife. Oh boy, all I need is to see something else to give me ideas, I thought. But when he said he had a fire place in there, well...

Sprinter owners! I was in Ohio during some down time and needed an Oil change. I always carry a extra oil filter for my sprinter, for the "just in case things that happen" Well, looked around for a Dodge dealership....found one and ask if they could change the oil in a Sprinter if I had the...

I have found some web sites that have hard to find items for Sprinters. In an earlier post I said I could get oil filters for around $7.00. Sorry they must have raised the price or I goofed. Still cheaper than Freight Liner or Dodge. http://eurocampers.com/ Oil/Fuel Filters, much more...
