The control valve on the Mercedes Sprint van up to 2006 often gives trouble and will require replacement. With over 1288 Sprinters of this type registered in Ireland replacing the control valve is a frequently requested repair and a profitable job.  

Many garages believe that a suitable replacement control valve is only available from a dealer and at a premium price. However, a high quality replacement is now available from motor factors nationwide.

The part number to order is 015409045 and the component is available at the superb trade price of €600 + VAT.
