Sprinter “Limp Home Mode”: Common Causes - Diesel News, Info And Guides

Already several years ago Daimler launched a vehicle fleet of 100 smart electric drive that are operated by customers in London Metropolitan area. Remove the ECU from its slide tray under the passenger dash area beneath the glove box area. If you follow the vac pipe back from the turbo you will see that it goes to an actuator that is bracket mounted on the inner wing below the air box at the back of the off side headlamp (UK Vehicles) This can be pulled upward off its bracket mounting rubber and moved to a better place for visual inspection. It is a good idea to check out both of the necessary brake and clutch pedal position switch sensors (on the pedal box above the clutch and brake) and where possible always get hold of a compatible diagnostic code reader as often faults are stored and not indicated with a EML lamp.


In the information given it is possible to plot the output from the charge pressure sensor to give an indication of charge pressure in the system, from this you can derive if it functioning correctly or if to suspect it as faulty. They are identified as one having three or sometimes four wires (commonly three) this is the charge pressure sensor. 5v referenced to ground dependant on charge pressure. Sprinter will notify owners, and dealers will check the installation of the abutting wedge, correcting it as necessary, free of charge. Likewise, Sprinter ride quality is better.

The five-speed auto is slick and decisive, but its short gearing means its standing-start punch comes at the expense of relaxed highway running. The most important question that comes in your mind would be if you will be able to obtain a car loan during your bankruptcy period?


For starters, a regularly maintained used car can actually make for a good investment. Once good vacuum supply has been determined, with the ignition off (no power to the valve and no vacuum present) the route of vacuum should be blocked by the valve to the turbo actuator. Turning on the ignition places a constant 12v to the electrical controlled vac actuator valve, (This voltage pulses during normal engine operation) vac should now be routed from actuator valve inlet to the turbo actuator (outlet) and the vent should now be blocked. Trace back the wires to the ECU connector and prove continuity exists from the ECU connector to the valve. Normally Sprinter engine revs are ECU limited whilst stationary to around 3500 rpm. If there is a limp home fault, engine revs will not progress above 3000 rpm even when dipping/releasing the clutch when stationary. That is why the dreaded turbo limp home fault often occurs without any indication on the dashboard. With a 3.0-liter V6 turbo diesel DOHC 24-valve engine, 7-speed automatic transmission with manual mode, rear wheel drive and 4 wheel disc brakes this vehicle is very easy to maneuver. For our second crack at the new Sprinter, not to mention our first drive in the “Made in U.S.A.” model, we piloted a Sprinter 2500 passenger van, equipped with the diesel engine, short wheelbase, and high roof.


With its comprehensive safety technology, the Sprinter has always set standards. This lever engages in an annular ring that in turn interlaces with a set of similar levers attached to each variable vane. As you rev the engine you should hear a very loud and strong tornado type howl from the air box, if you do not, and the actuator has moved pulling the lever downward there is a chance that the turbo itself is faulty. Inspect the external lever that the actuator push rod attaches to, ensure this moves smoothly as you accelerate / rev the engine. At first my engine light wasn't on, but it is now. Depressing the clutch and then further releasing it should now allow revs to increase above this range to the rev limit. The guys that started their Amway businesses then are millionaires many times over today, and they haven't had to work in decades.
