[@edsanders5479]

Evan if had 6 hands I would not be able to do what Dao does with one hand…truly amazing. I watch Dao now, forget the tv.

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@edsanders5479 Hahah Thanks!

[@tedpirsig154]

Thank you! This was perfect. It helped me diagnose my 2010 Sprinter oil cooler leak, and after watching all five videos, now I've learned all the exact steps involved and so feel mentally prepared.

I used this 5 part step by step video series to fix my 2012 sprinter. Thanks for creating this very helpful resource.

@hobie0001 My Pleasure! I'm glad to hear that the video was helpful!

[@schrodingerscat8621]

I’m currently in the process of performing this exact repair. I just removed the heat shield off the turbo and determined some more reverse torque bolts need to come out before this turbo can find its way on the table. Thank you for a thorough and informative illustration.

This is exactly the issue with my 2012 3500 merc sprinter. Started leaking 2 days ago. Wet areas are in the exact same location with oil coming from up top somewhere. Thanks for the video, now i know where its leaking from.

One question: where you show the turbo DPF tube at 17:50, do you know what year they changed to the easier-to-remove pipe? Do the 2010-and-later have the easier configuration? Thanks.

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

Hi, I like your video, very well explained, I have a question, how much is a job like that? My 2008 sprinter seems to have a lick from the oil cooler as well, it licks through the turbo and very often it goes into limp mode.

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@joseojeda1545 it depends! send me an email at [e-mail] and I will send you a quote!

Dit moi j'ai une prise d'airau turbo , j'ai vue qu'au niveau de mon collecteur côté alternateur de une, ça n'était pas serré et j'avais une fuite sur deux cylindres /3... Alternateur qui siffle 😅 Ma question 😁 Pense tu que ça peut provoquer ma perte de puissance le collecteur je me doute de t'as réponses mais avec une confirmation ça serait cool 😁 Du coup pour le sifflement Je reste dans le doute pcq j'ai jamais entendu un alternateur siffler comme ça 😅

[@J87513]

I have a 2008 and right at 17:38 you mentioned that the 2013 models have that part that can be removed. I don’t have that and wow it made it much more difficult :(

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

A Alp yes! it's very difficult to remove the turbo on the older models!

[@mehrana6770]

I stripped the two bolts that are In the front, any suggestions as far as getting them out, are there any tools I can get that will make it easier to remove? Time shows the bolts I’m talking about: 19:09

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@mehrana6770 you can get a bolt extractor from harbor freight

[@damienfaithfull3115]

A little secret, it is possible to get oil cooler out without taking turbo, inlet off. Remove fuel filter, fuel cross over pipe, and turbo charge pipe. Then die grind about 5mm off block just above the drain hole. This allows u to pivot cooler and lift out.Undo all the cooler bolts and remove. Turns a 12hr job into 3

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@damienfaithfull3115 Good to know!

[@mateogutierrez5339]

You can take the oil cooler out without removing the intake, just remove the turbo with the base + fuel filter, long quarter inch extension with a t37 and slide it out from the back where the turbo sits

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@mateogutierrez5339 Really?

Hi good day, Your you tube sessions that I have seen are fantastic, Perhaps you might assist me with a very frustrating situation, On my 2008 sprinter 906 311 tere is a bad oil leak it is a steady strean while the engin runs. probabally a cup full in 30 minutes. the engin oil is dripping from the Steering pump at the bottom probabally where it joind the engin, What I do not know is why, does the engine oil go through the steering pump, if so perhaps a seal is gone or piping broken, I am elderl and have not managed to go under the van to have a good liik, Any asistance would be appreciated.
