I Fixed My Sprinter Van Turbo Myself (And Passed MOT)

#vanlife #sprinter #diyvanlife

Part two of our Sprinter van maintenance series — tackling turbo repair, air suspension leaks, and getting through MOT day!

After last week's air suspension upgrade, the van drives better but the turbo's been acting up. This week: full Sprinter maintenance to get everything running right before our next adventure.

What we fixed:
✅ Turbo diagnosis and repair (DIY under the bonnet)
✅ Air suspension leak detection and patch
✅ Non-return valve installation on grey waste
✅ MOT test day (will it pass?)
✅ How the airbag suspension controls work

Real-world van maintenance for anyone keeping a Sprinter running or planning a van conversion.
