FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is a turbo resonator?
A. It is a device used on the 2.7 liter Mercedes Benz turbo diesel engine to slightly lessen the intake whine of the turbocharger.
Q. What exactly is this turbo resonator failure problem I have been hearing about on the Sprinter and Freightliner van chassis?
A. A typical turbo resonator failure happens under a period of maximum boost either climbing a hill or accelerating off a stop light with a load in the vehicle. The resonator is made up of injection molded plastic parts which are bonded together. The failure results from the parts separating from each other and allowing turbo boost air to escape from the intake system.
Q. What happens when the Sprinter turbo resonator fails?
A. The boost sensor sends a low pressure signal to the engine\'s computer which thinks there has been a catastrophic failure of the turbo. The vehicle immediately goes into \"limp home\" mode which results in a nearly total loss of ability to climb hills and a top speed on flat ground of about 35 to 40 mph. This usually results in having the vehicle towed in for repair. In addition, the check engine light comes on. If our Eliminator is installed after a failure, the check engine light should go off after a few starting cycles.
Q. Can a turbo resonator failure make the vehicle unsafe?
A. We have spoken with one Sprinter RV owner who had his turbo resonator blow out while trying to pass an 18 wheeler on an uphill grade and he barely made it back into the lane behind the truck before being hit by another 18 wheeler coming downhill in the other lane.
Q. Is there any permanent fix for this problem?
A. Yesthere is a permanent fix for the problem with the development of this turbo resonator Eliminator.
Q. How long does it take to install the new Eliminator?
A. Approx 1 hour, following clear & simple directions which are included.
Q. My turbo resonator has already been replaced shouldn\'t it be ok now?
A. One would hope so but that is not the response we are getting. According to Sprinter representatives with whom we have spoken, this part is made by a contractor and it is on its third revision and still having reported failures. Many owners are having multiple failures only a few thousand miles apart from each other, causing their Sprinters to need repair in the middle of a vacation or interrupting their workday with a broken down work van or truck. Remember the stock part is a plastic \"bonded together\" assembly \"living\" in a vibration and heat rich environment while being subjected to high pressure. This turbo resonator Eliminator is made of solid billet aluminum and is \"happy\" in all three environments.
Q. What Sprinter models are affected?
A.2004, 2005 and 2006 models all of which are equipped with the 2.7 liter turbo diesel.
Q. Will replacing the stock turbo resonator with the resonator Eliminator void my new vehicle warranty?
A. According to Sprinter dealers and representatives we have spoken with, it will not affect your warranty since it makes no change to the operational aspects of the vehicle. It does not alter the performance or the emission control systems in any way. It simply replaces a plastic assembly with a lifetime billet aluminum part.
Q. If my turbo resonator is working ok now should I wait until I have trouble to replace it?
A. It is our experience that some Sprinters may never experience the problem while others have experienced multiple failures in the first 5,000 miles of operations.Our recommendation is to changed it immediately to avoid ever having to worry about a breakdown at an inconvenient time or place. Some of our customers leave their stock resonator in place and carry our Eliminator in their tool box for emergency replacement, much like a spare tire.
