From about 2004 to 2013 Dodge, Mercedes and Freightliner all made Sprinter Vans with the W5A380 transmission. Many of these vehicles have cross members running across the rear and front of the stock pan. PML put a step in the front and rear of the pan to clear these frame cross members.

Always check your vehicle before ordering to verify set up and clearance.

From left to right: inside of PML pan showing filter supports, stock filter
PML design this pan to work with the stock filter. The Mercedes part number on the filter PML used during design and development is 140 277 00 95. There are filter supports cast into the pan to hold the filter in place at the same level as the stock pan. The filter supports eliminate the need for an extension.
Dipstick and Transmission Fluid Level
The fluid level should be at the same level in the stock pan and a PML pan. On many vehicles, the dipstick uses the bottom of the pan as a stop. PML pans have a ledge where the dipstick hits at the same level as the stock pan even though the PML pan is larger overall. In the above images of the inside of the pan, you can see the square ledge near the filter supports.
Many vehicles with these transmissions do not have a dipstick and the correct fluid level is based on temperature. The cap for the transmission fluid fill and level check can say "See Dealer". The installer of a replacement pan needs to have the correct tools to replace the transmission fluid according to the factory instructions. PML does not provide a dipstick.
Shield on Passenger's Front Corner
Some vehicles have a shield that attaches to the retaining clip at the front, passenger side corner of the stock pan. If you have this, you will need to fabricate a connector from the PML bolt to hold the shield. We are working on a modification to allow a shield to bolt directly onto our pan.
