Most common problems:

Oil leaks

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter with a 6-cylinder engine is known for developing oil leaks, especially around the oil cooler and valve cover gaskets.

Turbocharger issues

The turbocharger can sometimes fail, leading to reduced power and performance. This is often due to oil contamination or wear and tear.

Egr valve problems

The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve can get clogged with carbon deposits, causing rough idling, poor fuel economy, and increased emissions.

Dpf clogging

The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) can become clogged over time, leading to increased back pressure and reduced engine performance. This often requires a regeneration cycle or cleaning.

Fuel injector troubles

Fuel injectors can become clogged or fail, leading to poor fuel delivery, misfires, and reduced engine performance.

Timing chain wear

The timing chain can wear out over time, causing rattling noises and potential engine timing issues, which can affect overall performance and longevity.

Glow plug failure

Glow plugs may fail, especially in colder climates, making it difficult to start the engine and causing rough idling.

Coolant leaks

Coolant leaks, particularly from the radiator or hoses, can lead to engine overheating if not addressed promptly.

Sensor malfunctions

Various engine sensors, such as the oxygen sensor or mass airflow sensor, may malfunction, leading to poor engine performance and trouble codes.

Alternator failure

The alternator can fail, leading to battery drainage and electrical issues within the vehicle.
