- High-speed fuel pump replaced (2023)-

- **Service Records:**
- I’m the second owner (bought in 2020) — full paperwork from original owner included, documenting regular Mercedes-scheduled maintenance and miscellaneous service items.
- Entire HQ Customs detailed build sheet with receipts included
- Ongoing maintenance done consistently under my ownership — records included.
**Condition & Disclosures:**
**ProAir rear A/C system**: Currently non-functional due to an undiagnosed electrical issue. I replaced the motherboard in 2024 (located under the driver’s seat)— it has power— but there remains a signal break between the motherboard and the rear mounted controller. I have priced the van with this in mind. I have the contact information for the ProAir support team (now owned by Premier Solutions) if interested.
- *NOTE: This is an undermount rear AC system. If I were keeping the van (I am currently into a new build which is reason for sale), I would be installing a ducted Dometic (or similar) roof mount AC and connect that into the existing electrical system and existing ductwork. This is a sub $3k brand new solution and more fitted for Vanlife vs the original build.*
- **Passenger BMW front seat**: Fixed in a comfortable position; not adjustable due to a control module issue. I have the replacement parts and actively fixing.
-**Some rusting is evident. A quarter-sized spot at the sliding door track and a small bubble on the rear driver’s panel. Cosmetic only — common on Sprinters of this age.
- **Right rear captains chair**— the extendable leg rest requires manual help when extending or retracting it. Probably an easy fix if inclined— motors still function properly.
- Normal wear consistent with a 9-year-old van — overall excellent condition for mileage and use.
