  • Ignition lock ticked, what could it be?

    Evening together, I have at my 2006 Sprinter Pritsche the ignition lock Fritte…. has now given up after 2 years eternal hook completely the spirit. Now nothing more moves…. I let the to a MB workshop drag and they thought they have to expand the whole steering bar to get to the defective lock… Cost point 1250€ net is this realistic … seems to me to be a bit high or? Greeting Thomas

  • Stinking interior / Coated injector

    Hello people, with our 316 of 2010 the interior stinks of exhaust gases. The reason is the leaky injector from the 4th cylinder. Everything is full of oil coal up to the top. We have now solved the holder, but we can not get it off, we can not completely fold it up and remove it, it bends at the lower edge and we can therefore not get it higher. Do you know if you have to turn the nozzle something ? We will then screw it up and then a hydraulic screw up 8L with extension and hope that you can turn it a piece. But I fear that the injector is firmly seated. To set our puller on, unfortunately the holder has to be removed. Deim 311 you get the holders out without turning, when using the nozzles you have to turn them a little bit until the holder slips in. And what I noticed, there are 7 screws Tx50 installed on the 316, not the 6 with Tx40. And the holder is symmetrical at the 311, at the 316 one nose is longer. VG, Andre

  • Let the tachograph be expanded.

    Hello together. I asked Mercedes to have a Tachograph installed on the factory. 1-2 hours later, not the estimate was added, but a call that it was more difficult than thought and one did not know what was needed in advance and thus also the costs could not be estimated. And it would also be unknown whether it was possible at all, whether a dummy had to be installed etc. Is there any experience? Greeting Jan

  • Sprinter 416 CDI ( OM 612 ) power oscillators !

    Hello, have a camper with Mercedes 416 CDI engine ( 156 hp – year 2004 – OM 612 engine – 90,000 km – retrofitted particle filter because of green plate ).Now I have for some time the following problem: the car drives about 250 km ( or even less ), then I have – as it feels – no more turbo. It drives, switches also, but turns and turns only and goes hardly forward ( I gondel then with 30 km/h nn mountain up … ) There is no motor lamp and it also does not drive in an emergency program ( as far as I can judge ). If I stop briefly, switch off the engine and then restart after about 20 seconds again the problem is gone … then he runs again “how smeared” …… about 100 or even 200 km or longer …??? A familiar of me has read out the error memory and said something about problems with the underpressure . Unfortunately, is the next 4 weeks on holiday and before I search for everything now as a layman: has already had the same problem before and has had the worst problem for me?

  • High pressure line injection pump

    Hello, two years ago, the high-pressure fuel line on the flange to the injection nozzle on cylinder 4. After exactly two years and 2000-3000km, the renewed line to the flange of the injection pump ripped off again. Question: Are there special features to be considered (except screw-on and tighten)? Is there an exact tightening torque, if yes which? Thank you and greeting Information about the vehicle: MB Sprinter 312D BJ1996 700,000km

  • 316 CDI – Engine damage?

    With a loud bang today my 316 CDI with 32000km mileage (2.5 years old) on the highway has said goodbye. Oil and cooling water have run out…. Are such problems known with the engine? The vehicle was recently for routine inspection and had fresh oil. No error message before the bang. Has run quite quietly on the 500km track before the event. Let’s hear what the workshop says tomorrow! Greeting Thomas

  • MB-Sprinter for WoMo expand as needed?

    I am looking for a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter L3H2 from year 2016 under 200’000km and under EUR 20’000. After a long search I have found two favourites with car dealers, but I am undecided what the better decision is (probe drives are agreed). Sprinter 1: 190’000km no paint damage/bulbs outside and no apparent rust at first sight, 1 passenger seat and year 2017. In the cargo room it has dents where the wheel is (don’t know how to say it), price of the 17’000 EUR. Unfortunately, this has no air conditioning, which I would have to retrofit, as we will also travel in warmer regions. Sprinter 2: 118’000km smaller bumps or dents and one/two show-finger-grosse Dellen, in which it has rust, double-beifharer seat and year 2016, price of the 20’000 EUR, 143hp. Now I have to go for the cheaper with more kilometers, with some rust lanes etc. It is important to replace some of the cars with a little seat.

  • Engine MB 310D T1 5 cylinder Diesel OM 602

    Hello, at OM 602, the vacuum pump has said goodbye to the fact that the curve disc has been damaged (radial grooves). What needs to be changed in order to get the new replacement vacuum pump back into operation? (at MB workshop books is unfortunately extremely hard to get there) Many greetings … Frankhttps://img.motor-talk.de/KBr0RnO1h8RQTNQA.10.jpg to 1. picture red and green arrow … should actually be round. Was milled off blue arrows … should look like the part with red arrow … is broken https://img.motor-talk.de/KBr0RZjHOhZsqXb_.10.jpg to 2. picture Rifen in the curve disc … What is behind the gear wheel? What effort is necessary to replace the gear wheel with the curve disc? Greeting … Frank
