In this video, we will see how to check the cooling system of the Mercedes Sprinter. The tank is located on the passenger side, inside the engine compartment.

It is a semi-transparent plastic container that should be checked with the engine cold for an accurate reading. On the side of the tank, we will find the "min" and "max" marks, and it is on the latter mark that the level should be at when the engine is cold.

If the level is below the minimum, a warning light on the instrument panel may have turned on. We then proceed to top up with liquid that should be the same color as the one inside the tank.
