Mercedes Diesel
Does anyone have any experience with the Mercedes diesel in the Sprinter chassis? How are they standing up?

A forum member whose workplace has a fleet of them reported a while back that transmission failure, around 100k miles IIRC, has been a recurrent issue but I don't recall the particulars.
Of course, those in commercial duty likely see much more stop+go driving and harsh conditions so not sure if the RVer would need to be overly concerned.
IIRC that was for ones in ambulance service. Where I am working they have 4 of them, 3 less than a year old, the three turned in have 100-150K miles with no major repairs in the 5 yrs that they were in use. So far with the 3 new ones, all have 36-42K in about 13 months, no issues other than fluid and def fills.
