What Maintenance Do Sprinter Vans Need?
Sprinter Van Service A
It can be tricky to know exactly what you need to get serviced on your car and how frequently. If you own a Sprinter Van (or any Mercedes for that matter), all you need to do to ensure your vehicle is serviced on time is keep track of the kilometers you drive. The first Service A is performed at 20,000 km or after the first year of ownership. Service A consists of the following:
– Synthetic oil change
– Oil filter change
– Fuel filter replacement (diesel)
– Fluid checks and replenishment as needed
– Tire pressure check
– Brake inspection
– Diesel exhaust fluid top up (diesel vehicles only)
– Electronic maintenance reminder is reset.
Sprinter Van Service B
Mercedes’s second service interval is called Service B. The first Service B interval occurs at 40,000 km or after two years of ownership. After that, Service B alternates with Service A. Mercedes Service B is very similar to Service A, and consists of the following:
– Synthetic oil change
– Cabin air filter replacement
– Oil filter change
– Fuel filter replacement (diesel)
– Fluid checks and replenishment as needed
– Tire pressure check
– Brake inspection
– Diesel exhaust fluid replacement (diesel vehicles only)
– Electronic maintenance reminder is reset.
Sprinter Van service outside the scheduled A & B services
In addition to the scheduled A and B services, at Motor Werke we recommend performing a transmission and driveline fluid change around 80,000-100,000 kilometers. Mercedes Benz states these fluids are meant to last for the lifetime of the vehicle. To maximize longevity and reliability we find these services essential.
