On certain Sprinter 2500 and 3500 vehicles, the spring plate which is mounted at the oil filler neck, and fixes it at the cylinder head cover, may crack and cause an engine oil leak. In addition to possible damage to the engine (caused by inadequate lubrication) this may result in leakage of oil onto the road surface. Correction: Dealers will replace the oil filler neck.
