When should I come in for Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500XD differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician.

Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my Sprinter 3500XD?

Can you clear the Sprinter 3500XD check engine light on your own?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended.

You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.
