    its cause of all the hektik bass made by the subwoofer, yo. all the fully sick pressure created by ur subwoofer pushes the car backwards, dawg.

    The best way to install a system in a sprinter is to buy a second hand CD player and hook it up to existing speakers, if they're blown just get some $50 specials.

    Guessing the 'system' is a sound system.
    anyway. If it is a big amp, e.g high output wattage. It could be drawing to much current for your alternator as cmesld said.
    Id say take it to a car audio specialist. Not autobarn or supercheap. And get them to diagnose the problem for you.
    Shouldnt take them more than 30 mins if its something relatively simple like this
