Replying to: altered3 (Jul 15, 2006 4:32 pm) Could you further explain?   Your logic is not apparent to me.   . Replies to this message: altered3 (Jul 16, 2006 10:37 pm)

Replying to: northener (Jul 13, 2006 2:15 pm) Northener... you've got to be careful with the AT oil. I used to have a ford pickup truck and to clean the gas I used to put a one quart of AT to a tank (35 gal I think)let me tell you the AT will clean the wall and the lines of the system so much that I use to replace the fuel filter twice and still junk will come out of it. so be prepare for the outcome... good luck.

Replying to: punter1 (Jul 16, 2006 6:14 am) Hello Punter1 can you be more specific to your question, please I have dealt with so many emails I ended forgetting who was who. I think you were referring to Diesel exhaust emissions? of which I can explain once I know where your at, other wise I'll end up repeating the same fromat in the forum which won't help your query? Can you tell me, if you are a Diesel owner? this will allow me to explain the Diesel more specificly Thank you Altered3
#706 of 1262 Intermittent loss of power by med511 Jul 17, 2006 (6:34 am)
I have a printer van with the same problem as several post but no answers. When I first crank the vehicle it runs find for about 5 minutes. After five minutes plumes of black smoke come out of it and it loses all power. I I turn it off an restart it-it runs fine again for 5 minutes and then repeats the above. Dealer can't locate the problem (or their own ass) Replies to this message: nescosmo (Jul 17, 2006 3:50 pm) kl_carroll (Jul 25, 2006 4:43 am) altered3 (Jul 25, 2006 5:14 am) and 1 more...
#707 of 1262 Re: Sprinter is so LOUD [nescosmo] by kenbaker Jul 17, 2006 (10:45 am)
Replying to: nescosmo (Jul 12, 2006 9:23 pm) insulation certainly helps. the passenger model is not too loud, mine at 17,000 miles has not been a problem. A bit louder on HOT Oklahoma days, over 100 F. and running two A/C units too... The fans are all on, the engine revs higher, the compressors are running, and the main engine fan clutch sounds like it is locked up to pull maximum air over the radiator.   At thos ehot temps, my wife thinks it sounds strange when I downshift to slow for stops. I agree that it is different, but not unusual when an engine revs up and spins down with a fan clutch locked up.   My new fan clutch in my old chevy is the proper heavy duty item (that the van never had from the factory) and it takes some time to loosen up when cold (the oil in the fan clutch is stiff at first) then, when it gets really hot, it locks up again, and sounds more like a propeller than a fan.   The larger engine could easily be quiter depending on design as the inner sides of the cylinders on a V-6 are inside the block instead of exposed. The valve covers, though doubled in number, are also shorter and could be better damped. the injectors could be in the "valley" of the "V" and covered with a shield... all is speculation until we see (hear) one for ourselves.   Finally, Altered has indicated that D-C is bowing to U.S. pressure to deliver a quieter, more insulated van with less of the rattles we have come to expect.   KenB

Replying to: med511 (Jul 17, 2006 6:34 am) Med511.. It sound that you have an EGR problem even if you do not have an engine light on it. Take it to another dealer maybe to a Freightliner dealer, they have good tech and they cover the warranty. good l.

#710 of 1262 Sprinter regulation on the USA by nescosmo Jul 19, 2006 (10:14 pm)
Replying to: altered3 (Jul 13, 2006 6:10 pm) Sprinter in this country is view some how different than regular van and pck trucks. My sprinter is dual wheels and here in beutifull Orlando they said that I can not park it in my drive way and that is code enforcement deal. Friday is the day and the officer said that I have to removed it from the drive way because a neighbor don't like it. This is my transportation and if I new that it was like that I would have a single wheels one but now I don't know what to do. HELP Replies to this message: robr2 (Jul 24, 2006 5:36 am)

Replying to: nescosmo (Jul 19, 2006 10:14 pm) That sounds like a homeowner's association bylaw. Did you read one when you moved in?
