- Sprinter 316 cdi 2006 Sprintshift
Hello All,
We just bought a campervan based on 316CDI MWB Chassis and the infamous Sprintshift Semi-Automatic Gearbox. The van has 27K miles on the clock.Everything seems to be OK (touch wood ).
Going thru the service history - Mercedes recommends that the 716.6 Sprintshift needs an oil change every 10 years. I am near Lincoln so duly popped into the Local ( commercial ) Dealer and asked for a quote. The price ( inc vat ) quoted for the oil change was £455. Is this to be expected ? They quoted for 3 hours Labour + parts.
Any other preventative maintenance jobs I need to get done on the van ( particularly in relation to Sprintshift ) ? Anyone know of independent merc specialist who is familiar with Sprintshift system ? I am near Lincoln but willing to travel.
Thank You all in advance for your advice
Tom
