2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Mercedes-Benz's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Mercedes-Benz? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Sprinter 3500 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Sprinter 3500 transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Mercedes-Benz. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 leak transmission fluid? Yes. Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues.
