Hello, I’m looking for the right part no. for the two door entry lights at the bottom of the door panel for a W910. Interesting would also be the part no. for the corresponding cable set. Can someone help me or give me a tip – except to go to the friendly one? Would my camper like to retrofit with it.

Good day, I have the following problems and I’ve been to MB in the big workshop a dozen times, but since there’s never an error message, they can’t help me: I drive a Sprinter 215 cdi, built in 2008 , Diesel (if you need more information, let me know!) Sometimes he drives perfectly, regardless of the speed, machmal ABER (and that piles up) suddenly leaves the mileage extremely low: he doesn’t go more than 100 km/h despite full throttle or suddenly sags me despite the gas always we Iter down to about 60 – 80 km/h. This happens again and again but without any error message. Besides, the error is sometimes BUT not always fixed after several restarts. (not exactly advantageous on the highway) It has already been searched for all possible errors, also in the workshop, where there is every time a ellenlange invoice and nevertheless nothing changes. I have already selenated from similar cases. What could THAT be? I would be glad for any help, dear greetings sprint driver62

Hello, I’ve been driving the Vario for more than three years, among other things, and I have to say that this vehicle doesn’t deserve the star. It breaks what can be broken and also smaller defects (defected light bulbs, loose parts on the dashboard,….) accumulate extremely. This concerns all vehicles of the fleet and not only one. The oil consumption is astronomical and also considerable defects, as leaks in the brake line we had already three times. here and there unfortunately again a problem Only the engine was so far problem-free. Also the air conditioning is far too weak and does not manage to cool the vehicle to the set temperature. At yesterday’s temperatures in the sun it was finally overwhelmed. Even after hours it was still around 30 degrees. Mfg

Hello, I am new here in the forum and immediately have various questions about my new used cars. It is about one: Mercedes 407d year 1985 2.4 suction diesel (the OM 616) 72ps with 67tkm tow truck with servo operating instructions no longer available. To my questions: Which engine oil should I drive? Üner google I found only one opinion and indeed the millers 10w40 xfe an opinion is too little for me.. Will the engine last long. When I open the bonnet I see two ste one for motor oil, the other has a relatively large lid is the one for the servo oil? Or for the injection pump which is also extra lubricated with some models. I will still make a picture of it.. I have read that the valve play regularly controlled or.. heard, how does this check or adjust and can make a layman do it? Another question that is not so important however.. Does anyone know how many liters the tank includes.. when transferring 20L refuelled and the needle was then over half.. Appeared to me as a little thank you in advance

Moin, who knows what when MB is planning an innovation to finally become the rusty mold. I drive a Sprinter 312 year 96, 220000 km down, in some places I am happy with it and would like to buy a Sprinter again because of lack of alternatives. But with the thought of spending 50000,00 Euros, a lot of things is hard when he is through after 5 years. Good advice is expensive(-: Greeting Sprinter96

Hi guys, it’s about the problem of the “gammel operation”, as a Mercedes master calls it. It’s about Sprinter 906 311 with work platform construction, so the things with lifting arm and basket, where you stand inside to clean facades or to cut trees. These stages drive in the morning to the workstation and then run several hours a day in a slightly increased idle of about 900 min-1. From a mileage of about 60-80 tkm, these engines start to smoke, and less Idle, but after several hours of idle, if you then continue normally. And indeed, the smoke is so strong that people behind you can see nothing and think that the sprinter is burning. One has to bear in mind that one operating hour corresponds to about 30 km of drive, i.e. the sprinters have about 300 tkm on the tacho. The engine oil consumption is almost not measurable, very low between the oil changes annually, I take Aral 0W-40. My theory is now that the engine in the Idle running is “warm”, but the exhaust or DPF is rather “cold”. When Idle running a bit of oil or diesel always passes the valve shaft seals and piston rings and escapes unburned into the DPF and collects there. If you continue after a few hours Idle running, the DPF gets really warm after 1-2 km and burns this accumulated diesel. The result is very strong white smoke for about 2-3 minutes. In the photo you see an old Sprinter 903 in Idle running, like the Qualm a No comparison when driving after 1-2 km after long idle, you would not see the sprinter anymore, but unfortunately have no photo of it. An old MAN of us had these torments too, after changing the valve shaft seals the smoke was over. The Mercedes master says these engines are not made for the idle and thinks that this would do nothing. What do you think? I think the old seals are widened, hardened, there is a lot going on. Of course, the valve shafts can also go through. I wanted to start with the seals. VG, Andre

Hello together! With my Sprinter *) the following problems have arisen over time: – Heater has failed – the “normal” vehicle heating heats even after turning down still about 10 – 15 minutes further – recently the blower has only failed in the stages 1 and 2. I have now removed the control panel to see if there is possibly a purely mechanical fixation: of course nothing discovered. I wondered about the big board and a lot of threads here g elesen. After some pondering I think it is now possible that above all defects could all be related to a faulty control panel. Before I spend around 400 EUR for a new part, I would like to ask you if you are also most likely to tap on the control panel. Unfortunately, I am a bloody layman, as far as electrical equipment is concerned, therefore: is there a way to narrow down the causes of errors? Thanks already for thinking about it! *) 316 CDI, Bj. 2005 – HH9, HZ9

Hello, first of all, I’m new to the forum and also mainly here to find other people who might have had the same problem. I was in the washing machine of my trust today to have the car washed for the first time in my care and not to wash by hand. Arrived there, I was told by an employee immediately which facility to drive to. When the washing process started, the brush went up to the light, past it and at the back door. the brush then broke off the light with a loud bang and a slight lifting of the vehicle (2 tons!!) . Although I said that the employee should press the emergency off , he washed it again and then let it dry , which then damaged the roof as well as the rear window more strongly . Maybe I should have asserted myself … At Mercedes then it was said that this was the first time . Since I can not quite imagine this , I hope to meet people here , the n similar has happened and may give me tips for damage control. I am happy about your answers.

Hello, now also have a Sprinter 315 cdi with EZ 10/06. Now the engine control light has turned on and I no longer have any power. Switching the engine off and on at short notice remedy. When reading out with Torque come following errors: P0101 – Mass or Vol. air quantity meter circuit range/operation problem (declared as “current lazy”) P1955 – no description, according to Google a not relevant error regarding NOx (as “pending lazy” declared) P2011 – flow control ngsystem in the intake manifold (bank 2) – fault/interruption P2134 – circle sensor/switch F throttle/acceleration pedal position – signal discontinuous P2672 – injection pump timing offset (for this I have unfortunately found no German translation) In another topic it was written that it may be on the throttle valve if several errors occur at once. However, since I have another engine, the OM 646, advised me “saft otter”, better to open up a new topic Viellei I would have to delete the mistakes to see which ones are left over. Maybe they are older. Hope you can help me. Thank you very much! Greetings, air pump1983

Hello to everyone. I have used a Hymerwohnmobil integrated with engine 519 CDI. The vehicle has still until Oct. 2014 warranty. When accelerating the vehicle and warm engine one hears an additional noise. It sounds as if something was rubbing or grinding. Three workshop visits at different Mercedes houses did not help. All companies have confirmed the disturbing noise but finally defined it as state of the art. Who knows the problem and can help me? I am grateful for every answer. hweinz
