That would depend on the engine in it.

An exhaust brake is not something done by FR.

No exhaust brake that we know of.

We own a 2012 Sprinter class B motorhome. I agree, there doesn't seem to be a exhaust brake for the Sprinter. We do, however, find using the downshift button on the gear shift to be quite effective in helping control the speed in the mountains.
