Does a 2016 Sprinter have a smart alternator?
The latest Mercedes Sprinter has a 180A alternator as standard, while new Fiats offer a 180A or 200A alternator. Other brands are similar.
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.
When to replace fuel pressure solenoid on sprinter?
If it is and there is leakage, replace the fuel pressure solenoid. The high pressure pump is driven by the camshaft, and requires no timing. Fuel that enters the high pressure pump is pressurized between 200-1600 bar (2,900 – 23,205 psi). The pressurized fuel is then supplied to the fuel rail.
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.
How does the high pressure pump in a sprinter work?
The high pressure pump builds the high pressure and delivers it to the fuel rail manifold, which buffers out pressure fluctuations and distributes fuel to the individual injectors. The fuel quantity valve (fuel control actuator, M-Prop) in the high pressure pump controls pressure output from the pump.

What should I do about my pre 2007 sprinter?
Pre 2007 turbochargers can have their actuators adjusted. Turbo Resonator: Common failure part on these vehicles. Can replace with a durable aluminum unit to fix the faulty factory part.
What to do if your sprinter has a leak?
If a visual inspection doesn’t reveal a clear leak but you still suspect one may be the problem, investing in an Intercooler Pressure Tester may be a good idea. These devices allow you to pressurize the intake and intercooler system and find any leaks you may have.
