Problems with the 2014 Mercedes Sprinter: engine overheating and low coolant level

Hi, I had a similar problem with my 2012 Mercedes Vito. In my case, the cable on the pump and the control unit was defective. I have little experience with cars, so I took my car to a garage. The repair cost 225 euros. They replaced the cable and then everything ran smoothly again. Can you give me more information about your car? What model is it exactly and how old is it? The more information I have, the better I can help you.

Thanks for your answer, that helps me a bit. My Sprinter now has 63069 km on it and I last had it serviced about 6 months ago. Perhaps the problem is also due to a defective cable, as with your Vito. I'll have it checked at the garage. Hopefully it won't be too expensive. Thanks again!

No problem, gladly! It could really be a faulty cable or the water pump itself. I think the workshop should be able to find the cause quickly, especially if the coolant level is constantly low and the engine is overheating. This was also an indication with my Vito. The costs can of course vary, but if it's "only" the cable, it shouldn't be too expensive. The important thing is that you have it checked as soon as possible before any major damage occurs. Good luck, and let us know how it turns out!

Hello again! Thanks for the advice, I will definitely take my Sprinter to the garage immediately to check the damage. As the coolant level is really low all the time and the engine is overheating, it could actually be the cable or the water pump. As you said, I want to avoid major damage. I'm not worried about possible repair costs for now, the main thing is that my Sprinter runs properly again. Thanks again for your help. As soon as the car is running again, I'll let you know!
