Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Sprinter 3500XD?

Why is my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500XD making engine noise?

Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500XD. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil.

What could damage my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500XD engine?

Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided.
