Hi, I'm not sure what a VS30 is so please forgive me if I have posted this in the wrong location.
I am the proud new owner of a 2016 Mercedes Sprinter 2500 / 144. The car-fax indicates "VAN 3.0L V6 F DOHC 24V DIESEL ALL WHEEL DRIVE". It's a 4x4 and on the rear door it says, "BLUETEC 4x4". I'm not sure what the Bluetec means.
HERE'S MY QUESTION:
I've called two different dealerships to inquire if the van really indeed is all-wheel-drive with a differential lock for a more devoted type of 4-wheel drive, or if the van has rear wheel drive until you push the 4wheel-diff button, or something else. The two dealerships that I spoke with told me conflicting information, so I was wondering if anyone here can tell me definitively one way or another, when NOT in 4 wheel drive, is this an all-wheel-drive vehicle or is it a rear-wheel-drive vehicle? Also, when you put it in 4 wheel drive, is this equivalent to 4-high or is it meant to be treated more like 4-low?
Thank you in advance and Happy Holidays to you!
