2006 Dodge Sprinter 3500 Engine Problems

“I'm replacing the o2 sensor for the second time in three years. After researching it seems like a common problem related to the resonator. I am surprised Dodge or mercedes does not want to offer a solution especially since the engine is otherwise reliable. It's a case of a cheap part causing a lot of grief (and some safety risk as you never know when it will go into limp mode.) with no response from the manufacturer. This most recent sensor replacement will cost me $762.00”

“I have two recalls that needs to be done by a Dodge dealer which I tried two years ago with no success, the first one is brake light recall none of the Dodge dealers in my area up to 50 miles radius were able to fix the recall. Now I am trying to register my vehicle with dmv and I was told about the proof of correction that I need to provide for an emission recall. I called multiple Dodge dealers with no success to have it worked on plus I was suggested to call mercedes benz since it is a mercedes engineered vehicle and since its a Dodge they won't do the recall. …”

“Entire mercedes diesel sprinter engine failed completely and will need a new engine. Possible cause is cracked piston or stuck injector. This happened when driving, shortly after serpentine belt and transmission line were replaced, vehicle was just serviced, including new brakes, muffler, inspection, oil change. Only 82,000 miles! Cost will be over $11,000! This is a winnebago view and although it is now older (2007) it hasn't been driven that much each year.”

“Sprinter in loosing power when its going to even little hill,after that works fine.chk with shop trans ok. Other situation is AC vents giving only cold air from top vents and side vents giving full heat like over hot.”

“Engine dies driving at unknown times (key turn on) found test of power windows at same time stop due to no power (12volts) engine cut in and out but stops running. Deal never found the trouble. 1 click (relay) turn key to start (starter never turn) truck mite start 15 min or next day . Found bad mfg engine grounding. Added ground engine back to ground post fix the missing ground. / 2nd the mfg turbo resonator split making limp home mode.”
