How Often Should I Replace My Diesel Sprinter’s Brakes?
While gas Sprinters require brake service every 30,000 to 70,000 miles, the recommended mileage for Diesel Sprinter van brakes is less. It’s best that diesel brake checks occur every 30,000-45,000 miles.
Warning Signs My Diesel Sprinter Van Needs Brake Repairs
Strange Sounds
Squealing, chittering, or the tell-tale womp-womp-womp sound can all signal failing brakes or brake components.
Brake Light Warning Appears
Modern luxury vans normally have sensors that anticipate brake failure. If your dashboard brake or ABS light appears or flashes, schedule an appointment with us immediately.
Van Pulls Upon Braking
If, upon slowing down, you notice that the vehicle is pulling in one direction or the other, make sure to schedule an appointment with us to ensure your safety.
Spongy Brake Pedals
If the brake pedals feel gushy or spongy when applying weight to them–or if it requires much more force than normally exerted to push the pedals, that’s a clear sign of brake malfunction and/or low brake fluid.
Van Vibrates
When braking is accompanied by full or partial vehicle vibration, there’s a good chance that your rotors are worn down and need replacing.
