Oil Change, Service A & B
Mercedes Sprinter Oil Change, Service A & Service B – Keep Your Van Running Like New!
Why Regular Maintenance Is Essential for Your Sprinter
Your Mercedes Sprinter is more than just a van—it’s the backbone of your business, your adventure companion, and your daily workhorse. Like any high-performance machine, it needs proper care to stay reliable, efficient, and problem-free.
Mercedes-Benz recommends a tiered service schedule to keep your Sprinter in peak condition:
- Oil Change Service – Essential engine protection with fresh synthetic oil and filter replacement.
- Service A – Includes everything in an oil change, plus engine and cabin air filter replacement, tire and brake inspection.
- Service B – The most comprehensive check-up, adding a fuel filter replacement, brake fluid change, and a full multi-point inspection.
By staying on top of maintenance, you avoid costly repairs, improve fuel efficiency, and extend your van’s lifespan.
What’s the Difference Between Oil Change, Service A & Service B?
Oil Change Service – The Foundation of Engine Health
Your engine runs at extreme temperatures and contains fast-moving metal parts that generate heat and friction. Fresh oil keeps everything running smoothly, while old oil breaks down, causing wear, sludge buildup, and reduced performance.
- Premium Synthetic Oil Change (Mercedes-approved MB 229.5 / MB 229.51 / MB 229.52 / MB 229.71).
- OEM Oil Filter Replacement to trap contaminants and prevent engine wear.
- Oil Level & Pressure Check to ensure proper lubrication.
- Fluid Top-Up (coolant, brake fluid, windshield washer).
- Basic Engine Inspection for leaks and early warning signs of issues.
- Recommended every 7,000–10,000 miles, or sooner under heavy
