Mercedes Sprinter 313–319 CDI Known Issues by Engine
If your Sprinter has the OM651 4-cylinder diesel — that's the NCV3 generation — injector seal leaks and timing chain wear are a well-documented pattern on this engine, shared with the wider Mercedes commercial range. We replace worn injector seals, timing chain components, EGR valves and gaskets as standard on every OM651 rebuild.
If your Sprinter has the OM642 V6 diesel — also in the NCV3 generation — swirl flap and injector wear is the established pattern. We replace worn swirl flaps, injector seals, timing chain components and gaskets as standard on every OM642 rebuild.

REBUILDING YOUR SPRINTER 313–319 CDI ENGINE
We rebuild the engine your SPRINTER 313–319 CDI already has instead of selling you a used engine of unknown history — strip it down, pressure-test it, and replace every worn or damaged component (timing chains, bearings, water pump, gaskets) with updated OEM parts. Near-new performance with a 12-month unlimited-mileage warranty.

ABOUT THE MERCEDES SPRINTER 313–319 CDI ENGINE
The Sprinter 313–319 CDI (NCV3 generation, 2006–2018) uses two different diesel engines, depending on the specification. The lower-output models (313, 315, 316) use the OM651 — a 2.1-litre four-cylinder diesel shared across the wider Mercedes commercial range of that era. The higher-output models (318, 319) use the OM642 — a 3.0-litre V6 diesel, also found in other Mercedes commercial and passenger vehicles. Both engines have well-documented wear patterns, which is why we confirm your exact engine by registration before quoting.
We continue to rebuild and replace M256 engines for every SPRINTER 313–319 CDI on the road.
MERCEDES SPRINTER 313–319 CDI ENGINE CODES
OM651 (NCV3, 4-cylinder)
A 2.1-litre four-cylinder diesel fitted to the Sprinter 313–316 CDI from 2006 to 2018. Known for injector seal leaks and timing chain wear — see the callout above. We replace worn timing chain components, injector seals, EGR valves and gaskets as standard on every OM651 rebuild.
Check Your OM651 Sprinter 313–319 CDIOM642 (NCV3, V6)
A 3.0-litre V6 diesel fitted to the Sprinter 318–319 CDI from 2006 to 2018. Known for swirl flap and injector wear over time — see the callout above. We replace worn swirl flaps, injector seals, timing chain components and gaskets as standard on every OM642 rebuild.
Check Your OM642 Sprinter 313–319 CDIMERCEDES SPRINTER 313–319 CDI ENGINE COMPATIBILITY
Because the Sprinter 313–319 CDI spans two distinct engines across the NCV3 generation, fitting the wrong replacement — or assuming an OM651 part will work on an OM642 van — risks a compatibility problem that's expensive to unpick. Before we quote or supply anything, we confirm:
Your exact engine code (M256) via registration or VIN
Your generation (R190)
Drivetrain and ancillary specification
Any electronics or ECU considerations specific to your exact build
This is why we always start with your registration rather than a generic Sprinter quote — it protects you from paying for parts that don't fit your actual car.
