Expert Answers about Mercedes-Benz Sprinter


  • Windshield Cover for 2012 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
  • We do have window covers that fit your 2012 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter though the Camco SunShield Reflective Motor Home Window Cover # CAM45164 you referenced is a universal fit, so while it will certainly work to shield your Mercedes from the sun, it is not designed specifically to fit your van. It measures 62" x 30" so if you like you can certainly take a quick measurement of your windshield to see if it matches that of the SunShield. Otherwise there are a pair of covers that are confirmed...

  • Is Just the Tuner or Antenna of the SiriusXM Vehicle Tuner Needed if You Have an XM Radio Already
  • The SiriusXM Vehicle Tuner with Magnetic Mount Antenna # SXV300V1 is designed to be used with SiriusXM ready stereos. This would be a stereo that can accept the SiriusXM cable but does not already have the antenna or tuner. If that is what you mean by XM radio, then you would need the entire SiriusXM Vehicle Tuner with Magnetic Mount Antenna # SXV300V1 (tuner and antenna). If by already having an XM stereo, you mean it had a functioning SiriusXM already, then the antenna and tuner would...

  • 2-Bike Hitch Rack Recommendation for Use on 2008 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Motor Home
  • Thank you for including a photo of your 2008 Sprinter-based RV which appears to have a 2-inch Class III hitch installed. This hitch is great for using a bike rack, but your rear-mounted spare tire poses some challenges for a bike rack fit. What I suggest you do is measure from the center of the hitch pin hole to the rear-most part of the spare tire cover to determine how much clearance you need from a carrier. The linked article explains this simple process. If the 11-inch measurement...

  • Adding A T-Fitting To An ASME Motorhome Tank To Use Auxiliary Propane Tanks
  • Most motorhome ASME tanks utilize a POL fitting for the vapor port line that runs out to your regulator. I can't tell solely tell off of the photo but I'm sure that's probably the case. If so, you could use the # 103537-MBS between the hose and valve. Before removing the hose you would want to shut off the valve and could drain the line by turning on a burner to take any pressure out. You could then thread on the # 103537-MBS and then reconnect the hose to the male POL fitting. You will...
