At a glance
- Covers: Vito vans and minibuses, 2014 on, with the facelift from 2019 and a second facelift from 2024. The V-Class is the same van as a people carrier.
- Reliability: 3/5. Owners praise the drivetrain and few body faults are confirmed, but AdBlue faults recur.
- DIY: 3/5. Checks and basic service are easy. AdBlue sensor and engine work needs a scanner and a workshop.
- Prefer: vans with full service records and proof that recall work was done.
- Avoid: vans with AdBlue warnings or a refused start.

Before you buy
- Cold start rattle (OM651): start the cold engine and listen for a rattle from the engine for a few seconds. The chain check needs a mechanical test with a special tool, so a workshop. Bad result: a rattle that stays after start.
- AdBlue: with the engine running, check the dash for AdBlue and engine warnings, and check the AdBlue level. A scanner reads stored NOx sensor and dosing codes. Bad result: a warning, a stored code, or a van that refuses to start.
- Recall campaigns: ask a Mercedes dealer to check open campaigns for the van's VIN, and ask for proof that recall work was done. Bad result: an open campaign.
