    Anyone use a camping tent propane heater for their Sprinter or cargo van?

I'm trying to find a resale value for my 2003 Sprinter with the 158" wheelbase and 250,000 miles on it. Where is a good place to...

    What would cause a Sprinter to vibrate while idling?

    Always get good advice from this forum so I'll try again. My 2003 Sprinter with 250,000 miles is vibrating while idling. When I get up to speed I don't notice the vibration anymore, and it doesn't vibrate as bad during idling after it has been running a bit. The first thing I thought was the...

    Does anyone know the cost of replacing brake lines and ABS on a Sprinter?

    Looks like my brake lines are rotting and even where they go into the ABS is rotting. Looks like the only thing that doesn't need to be replaced is the master cylinder. Does anyone know roughly the cost to get this replaced?

    My Sprinter has been hard starting for a while, and now I think the starter is going. Anyone know how much it is to replace? Looks like I'll have to get it done at a dealership. If it's not one thing it's another with this **** thing :(

    Sprinter turbo leaking oil?

    So I just got my Sprinter back from an oil change and the tech, who used to service Sprinters, said my turbo was leaking oil pretty bad and it was going all through the lines. I'm obviously no mechanic but I do trust this guy (known him for years) and he has nothing to gain by giving me a...
