    Now I get to find out how much a mercedes windshield costs

    Nice day in Denver (about 80). Getting my Isata 3 ready for a quick trip to the mountains. My RV was parked on the street pointing west (into the sun). I had the front sun screen up. I decided to rinse off some of the dust so grabbed the hose to do a quick wash. As soon as the water hit the...

    Does this price for Mercedes Schedule A Service seem high or about right?

    Just had our first Schedule A service done at a local Mercedes dealership and the cost seemed pretty high based on what was done, since I thought Schedule B was supposed to be the more expensive service? Not a huge deal either way, just curious because if this seems too far out of line, then...

    Mercedes 229.52 oil

    I am coming up on an oil change for this year and noticed Motul has a 229.52 approved 5-40 dpf safe oil available. I went to the Mercedes link to verify and found there has been quite a few changes. What struck me is there is a very clear move away from 0 wt oils. Nearly all are now 5-30...

    Mercedes Benz Sprinter reliability

    Good morning, We currently have a 35'TT and are looking at the possible purchase of a class C. We like the looks of the Dynamax Isata 3, but one of my concerns is the maintenance cost of a Benz. The specific unit is a 2018 24FWM with 5k miles. I like the idea of a diesel for mountain driving...

    I-3 to I-5... anybody move from Mercedes Sprinter to Dodge Ram Chassis?

    Mercedes glow plug system

    I have a 2019 Dynamax Isata 3 24 fw motorhome powered by Mercedes. When I start it in cold weather, the glow plug indicator light only comes on for about a second or two. Having a Mercedes before, I am sure that it needs to stay on longer to do much good. We are in the lower 20's now and...

    Dead Battery on Mercedes Isata 3

    :( For the 3rd time now the chassis battery is dead after sitting for just 2 weeks. Nothing is plugged into the DC outlet. I don't see any parasitic drain on the system. I'm glad the house batteries were available! I mentioned this to the tech at the dealer and he said MB has had a lot of...

    isata 3 mercedes diesel winter storage

    What do you seasoned Mercedes diesel owners do about winter storage. My old Winnebago V10, you just filled up, added some stabilizer, and I would start it up once a month and idle it for 30 minutes with the AC on high (per the manuel). This diesel is a different animal. Mercedes says no fuel...

    Mercedes Speedometer

    Would it not be logical to assume that a fine piece of German engineering such as my Sprinter would have a speedometer with both mph and kph displayed on the same dial? :confused: We are driving across the Trans Canada highway using a cell phone app to display our speed in kilometers.
