What is the problem with my Dodge Sprinter?
Check for all loose connections to air box, turbo, both ends of intercooler, and especially the turbo resonator (do not over-tighten). Double check for holes in the intercooler as well. Double and triple check the TURBO RESONATOR, it is probably split due to manufacturing problems, vibrations, and/or stresses like turbo pressure…
What should fuel pressure be on Sprinter diesel?
When checking the fuel pressure solenoid there should be no fuel coming out the return during cranking, and it should hold 870-1450 psi when unplugged during cranking. If it doesn’t, and the injectors are OK, then the fuel pressure solenoid is bad.
Where can I get a Dodge Sprinter with no boost?
Update: Had a 2nd event of sudden loss of power / no boost on the I20 just west of Atlanta on a weekend trip with my Sprinter 3500 (2006) Winnebago View (2007). Aborted trip and limped back on my own power to dealer in Canton, GA that has Service Department working on Saturdays.
When did the Mercedes Benz Sprinter come out?
In this article, we consider the second-generation Mercedes-Benz Sprinter (W906, NCV3), produced from 2006 to 2018.
Check for all loose connections to air box, turbo, both ends of intercooler, and especially the turbo resonator (do not over-tighten). Double check for holes in the intercooler as well. Double and triple check the TURBO RESONATOR, it is probably split due to manufacturing problems, vibrations, and/or stresses like turbo pressure…

What is the Turbo resonator on a Dodge Sprinter?
Turbo Resonator is the black plastic box on the front of the turbo into which the boosted air goes prior to going into the intercooler input hose. recommended to replace with the part from Riordan = no more failure (aluminum part)… I have a Winnebago View built on the Sprinter Chassis. I had the same problem.
What’s the purpose of the POS on a sprinter?
The POS plastic resonator is nothing more than a poorly engineered plastic “muffler” for turbo noise and serves no other function other than placing you in limp home whan it breaks.
How does the fuel pressure solenoid work on a sprinter?
The solenoid controls and maintains the rail pressure as commanded by the ECM. In a DE-energized state, the fuel pressure solenoid is held closed by spring force, like a relief valve. During starting the fuel pressure solenoid is held closed by magnetic force to allow enough pressure for starting.
Is there a relative compression test for sprinter?
There is a relative compression test available using the wiTECH scan tool. Acceptable values between two cylinders must be equal to or less than 15 rpm. Restricted or aerated fuel supply to the high pressure pump. Actual versus desired too far apart, map the fuel pressure graph, if you have a fluctuation over 500 psi this may cause a surge.
What should the rail pressure be on a Sprinter diesel?
Check rail pressure when engine is off, it should be 0 PSI (+/- 500 PSI). Aerated or restricted fuel supply. Excessive idle time can cause white smoke when cold due to carbon build up on injector tips. More than 20% idle time is excessive. 2007-2009 model years use an electric supply pump in the tank to feed the CP pump at 59 +-2 PSI.
