Hello everyone,
This is my first post on this form. I hope to get your experienced opinions.
So I recently bought a sprinter 311 (906) van. I drove about 3-4 thousand Kms and had to replace engine oil as the old oil was too bad. I had my mechanic fill it up with 0W-30 fully synthetic long life oil. So after driving about 100 or less Kms all of the sudden check engine came on along with EPS and ASR BAS (Tire symbol).
After a few seconds came the oil pressure light and check engine started flashing. My first thought lets google about a flashing engine light; and my darkest fears came that the Motor(engine) might have died on me. I rushed to the bonet just to find that the engine oil was not too low. Long story short after checking the particulate filter and rest of the Silencer from beneath the van I drove it with a limp mode to nearest city and parked it there.
Next day I had it diagnosed from a mechanic with 3 kinds of different diagnostic tools (OBD computers) he told me that Turbo sensor is faulty and he had removed the errors for now if they show up again I had to replace turbo sensor.
So I drove back to my city about 60 Kms and it came fine. I parked it went home.
Next day when I started it same 4 lights came again. I went straight to my mechanic and he told me a completely different story. Well he actually told 3. Firstly just by seeing the meter lights he said straight away that because we changed the engine oil a week ago it was the engine oil pressure sensor thats faulty.
When I insisted that he use a diagnostic tool and he did and told me that its the DPF (Diesil Particulate Filter). After clearing the errors again he told me that Glow plugs must be changed because there was an error P1955 which is of glow plugs. I drive back home with only check engine light that was stable at that time. Just after reaching my city the light was gone and as soon as I parked it all 4 lights came back on.
I want to cry and weep like a little boy because I can't understand what to do.
Please please please guide me.
Picture of speedometer also attached. Thanks in advance
