bought my vito from new loved it from the moment i got into it drove like a dream.

for three years not a problem but no sooner had it come out of its warranty it started to have issues the main one the engine management light came on,brought it to Mercedes ans came back just one of those things broke down again done system check no ans broke down again another check suggested dirty fuel, removed and emptied tank no ans thought it was the common rail took it of and ran it on a test rail it wouldn't run properly god help me if it breaks in future. next they discovered that the hardy spicer on the prop shaft had gone at 63,000 miles just ones of those things according to them. Bill at moment £2,300 and they still not sure what the problem is? Mercedes world leaders eh!!!!. P.S. for any one wanting to know the 3yr servicing does not include adjusting or checking brakes on vehicle as i found out to my cost so be warned and they eat through discs and pads very quickly.

Hi On looking for spares i have come across this web site, we have a vito 115 cdi 2004 , we have had to change the rear springs 18 months ago and now the front are requiring replacement have had them inspected and have been advised that they are faulty, the paint on the sliding door and other areas have flaked off (independant coach works have said that the fault in under coat and over colour has not settled, spoken to Merc Customer services who do not want to know we have on done 47,000 miles (no heavey work). also know of a 2005 with same problems who are trying to deal with Mercedez who don't want to know. thinking of joining togeather on looking on the internet for 30 minutes and have found 27 out of 33 reports for vans 2003 - 2007 all reporting the same problems will keep an eye on this web site if anyone else would like join forces may be we will get someone

I am owner of Vito 111 Extra long 2007, shame for Mercedes so far in my experience on Vito put me of on Mercedes VANS and CARS, the Vito worse van ever I had. I ask many people who’s have Vito they told me same thing, electric ways very bad every day different light coming on in dash cost way dear to fix and body get rust everywhere making nose, I advise every one don’t spend your money to buy Mercedes Vito VAN or other merc VAN not worthy. Just go get transit van or any other I am sure much better you make right dissection better then Mercedes don’t go for name, I am very regret to bought the Vito spend over £10000 :( contact me if you have any question leos-(at)live.co.uk / 03/08/2012
