Technical data
Air conditioning
The air conditioning system of your vehicle contains R-134a, a refrigerant that does not
deplete the ozone layer in the upper atmosphere.
Automatic transmission
Brakes
Use brake fluid approved for MB Specifications for Service Products, MB 331.0 and/or
brake fluid certified to DOT 4 Plus standards, that also maintains a minimum dry boiling
point (ERBP) of 500 °F (260 °C), a minimum wet boiling point (WERBP) of 356 °F
(180 °C) and a maximum viscosity of 1500 mm

The use of aluminum components in
Sprinter engines requires that anticorro-
sive/antifreeze specifically formulated to
protect aluminum parts be used. The facto-
ry-approved service products are suitable
for Sprinter engines and can be mixed with
the original anti-corrosion/antifreeze
filled at factory.

1. Over the course of a brake fluid's service life, its boiling point falls due to the continuous absorption of mois-
ture from the atmosphere. If the boiling point of the brake fluid is too low, vapor pockets may form in the
brake system when the brakes are applied hard (e.g. when driving on long downhill stretches). This has a
detrimental effect on braking efficiency, which could increase the stopping distance. This increases the risk
of an accident. Have the brake fluid renewed every 2 years.
