Mercedes-Benz recommends having your 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500XD’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your Sprinter 3500XD may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust.

2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500XD Oil Change Questions

  • What can low oil do to my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500XD engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and eventually lead to Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500XD engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500XD oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz exhaust smoke gray or blue? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
