Re: [MBZ] DEF system eliminated - 2012 Sprinter 2500
I thought of purchasing a E250 Bluetec sedan that had been de-DEFed by its PA owner. Seller claimed 45-50 mpg as a result, but it wouldn't pass MD inspection so I purchased a legal E250 in VA. I get 45 mpg on the beltway in any case, so not much difference under the DEF system.

Re: [MBZ] DEF system eliminated - 2012 Sprinter 2500
I haven't heard complaints about the DEF system on the Sprinters like I have on MB's passenger vehicles. Maybe the Freightliner influence made it better? VW's DEF system seems pretty solid. At least I've never had an issue with it in my 2015 Jetta. That reminds me, I have no idea the last time I filled it... -Curt On Friday, June 28, 2024 at 08:42:33 AM EDT, Buggered Benzmail via Mercedes wrote: Huge performance boost --FT Sent from iFōn > On Jun 27, 2024, at 9:21 PM, Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes > wrote: > > I spend $12/year ($1/month) on DEF fluid for each of my 2014/15 Bluetecs. > Why would I want to disable the system? > >> On Thu, Jun 27, 2024 at 9:58 PM Allan Streib via Mercedes < >> mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: >> >> With the money saved on DEF he bought a pinhole camera to take the photos. >> >> >> https://dayton.craigslist.org/cto/d/springboro-mercedes-sprinter-van-2500/7761005919.html >> ___ >> http://www.okiebenz.com >> >> To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ >> >> To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: >> http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com >> >> >> > ___ > http://www.okiebenz.com > > To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ > > To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: > http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com > ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Re: [MBZ] DEF system eliminated - 2012 Sprinter 2500
I spend $12/year ($1/month) on DEF fluid for each of my 2014/15 Bluetecs. Why would I want to disable the system?
