Is the Sprinter a Good Van to Buy?

Is the Mercedes Sprinter or Dodge or Freightliner Sprinter a good van to buy? In this video Greg Your Car Angel goes through the three generations of Sprinters. The first generation T1N which ran between 1995-2006, the second generation NCV3 which ran between 2007-2018 and the third generation VS30 which ran between 2019 and the present. From rust issues to turbo resonators to rumple strip noise is all covered on the !st gen T1N. The dreaded DPF system, the DEF fluid reservoir and the NOX sensors are all covered on the 2nd gen units. and finally the MBUX system is covered on the 3rd gen. Which is the best? Greg thinks the reliability of the OM647 is the best, even over the OM612. The rust areas are on the seams on top of the van and the body panels underneath.
These vans are some of the best to build out and up fit as van conversions.

We have a 2011 Sprinter 3500 built out by Winnebago into an RV with less than 45k miles.. We are not handy, and this makes it very expensive for us as, with two exceptions that we've encountered, mechanics other than certain MB dealers refuse to work on Sprinters. We are on our 3rd set of NOX sensors ($1800), our DEF heater failed ($4400), struts failed at 30k miles ($1200), cab A/C at 33k miles ($500). Our maintenance services cost just under $1k because the fuel filter always needs to be replaced. At 40k miles our transmission needed servicing (another $1k). You didn't mention that MB was sued by the US gov't and California for apparently cheating on emissions tests which required an manufacturer's recall which has led to a reduction in our average fuel economy from 15.5 to 14.8 and we don't drive faster than 64. To be fair, we did get a $3675 refund and Mercedes fixed the DEF heater but that only puts a dent in our costs. Another potential problem are the wheel sensors which members of our online users group are experiencing. We've been trying to sell the RV for 6 months but all we get are low ball offers. The Winnebago build is good so we are living with the MB issues but we recommend not buying the 2nd generation from 2007-2013.

@@joshua-the-seer8494 hopefully you'll have good luck with the improved chassis if you do buy. Note also the sticker on the inside of the fuel door that says "Diesel #2 or B5 Only". You can use higher biodiesel in an emergency according to the manual but try not to if you can.

I HAD a 2005 dodge sprinter for 9 years. Maintenance is key. I kept up with the maintenance and the engine and drive train outlasted the frame and underbody. I was sad to see it go. But was quickly revived with my new to me 2015 Mercedes sprinter with the 2.1 4 cylinder and 7 speed transmission. And no rust!! When maintained these vans last for a long time. With what I learned from maintaining my T1N I am confident to do my own maintenance on this new beast

[@pedrorivera6579]

Good video, very honest description. On my personal experience, I own a 2007 3.0 NCV3 Sprinter. When I bought it, it was my second diesel. I was not very familiar with the new systems on the Sprinter. Over time I learned those systems and got confident and started working on her. I started to do all maintenance. Oil and filter change. Diff and transmission service. Coolant flush. All hoses replacement. At a 160 000 miles I was able to tackle the infamous oil cooler gasket replacement job, by myself. Right after that the dpf got clogged. This happens around every 160 000 miles. I use molly dpf protector and believe it helps. I also use diesel kleen. At little over 400 000 miles, it keeps running strong. The only issue I have to face is the dpf getting clogged at around every 160 000 miles. Other than that is just regular maintenance. I change the engine oil every 10 000 miles. I won't wait until 20 000 miles. I don't need a mercedes dealer at every corner where I go. As many people claim. I kind of sense most of the issues now a days with the Sprinter is due to the ton of technology Mercedes dumps into its vehicles, and the lack of knowledge from most of the buyers about all those systems. It looks to me like mercedes don't want you to do the maintenance so they can do it, and kill you with the invoice. Even after all those issues, I still believe there's no better van outhere than the Sprinter. Is not something I try to impose, it's just a fact. I'm not a lawyer or a doctor. I'm just a remodeling guy. I got to watch my investment when buying a van. And when the time comes, I'll buy me another Sprinter. Sincerely, Pedro

[@grisher111]

I saw the title of this and immediately thought I'd tell you about my Sprinter. Haven't looked at his video. My Sprinter has 276,000 miles on it. I have a pile of money making a camper out of the 2008 cargo van. Otherwise, it would have been gone a looooong time ago. I've got more money in repairs and maintaining it than what it sold for new. Transmission can't make up it's mind to lock or unlock so it chatters and destroys itself. Plan on replacing it every 100,000 miles or less. Dust covers on rear axle rust out--have to take the axle apart to replace them. The whole van rusts--started rusting as soon as I brought it home so figure on a paint job every few years. Good luck on finding anyone who can work on them other than the dealer. Allow 15¢ a mile or more for repairs and you'll be ok. Find someone who knows Sprinters and you'll be able to put it on cruise control at 100 mph.

[@Nemo-yn1sp]

Your reviews are excellent. I have purchased two cars with help of your reviews - a PriusV (killed my back) then a 2014 Volt. Volt also killed my back, but I fixed the seat with a pillowcase filled with 25# of split peas and a lumbar cushion. Wish I'd figured it out with the PriusV, but I do love the Volt. Now I need a small cargo van, Transit Connect or Promaster City? Not ready for a big one yet.

[@jjackmanster]

As always a thorough analysis. My disappointment is that by doing all your own maintenance you sidestep the main reason to consider the competitors which are much less expensive to maintain. Promasters are cheaper to buy and cheaper to maintain. Getting a diesel mechanic is not easy in much of the country.

[@DaDude999]

I own a pair of rusty T1Ns. People really overblow the issue. It’s usually cosmetic and if it gets bad e.g. windows pop out, it is a low skill, low price fix to add some metal back. The engine work is much more expensive. I can get a whole lot of body work done for the price of a turbo or high pressure fuel pump. That being said, nice find on yours. I have never seen one that clean. I Fluid Film my van underbody too.

our library system purchased 2 of these 2014 Sprinters. Farber converted them into bookmobiles. -The Death Triangle is real, especially since these have high idle times. Since 2020, the vehicles have had 2-3 "DEF" events per year. I don't know the amount of money that has gone to fix these issues, but i want to estimate it at about $5K per incidence. These DEF issues, along with part shortages, accounted for us being down close to 8 months in 2021. But I gotta say when they run, the turbo engine and great turning radius do make it a fun drive.

It has a little rumble strip noise only under certain conditions. It's actually a Class B RV, and with all that weight I consistently get 21 - 23 MPG. The last 2 fill-ups were 23 MPG, and that's with driving hills and curvy mountain roads!

Hello from Europe, the info I've received is that the white vans are the worst for rust. I appears those speced with 'upmarket' colours are better protected, which certainly matches what I see. Have also heard it is critical to replace the oil pump @ 100k miles, but this may only apply to the 2.1 turbo diesel which is very popular in Europe. This small engine is very impressive matted to the manual box, leisurely lugging a fully loaded xlwb Sprinter @ 70/80 mph on the freeway.

I think the issue is that it’s new enough that not enough people have put enough mileage on to make a conclusion on reliability. There are recalls, unfortunately that’s normal for most new cars within the first few production years. Doesn’t necessarily mean the car will have long term reliability problems.

13:20 , Greg, you’re inaccurate in describing the DPF issue. The issue was one of interrupting the regeneration more than once before it completed. If you interrupted it while regenning and then didn’t let it complete the second time while it was regenning, it created the triangle of death to which you refer, the CEL. Problem was and is, it didn’t let you know when it was regenning unless you closely watched the fuel mileage while regenning ( it dumps fuel into DPF and dramatically reduces mpg while regenning.) .
