My Indy friend recommends replacing the battery at 4 years. I squeezed 4 yr. 5 mo. out of my original MB battery in my SLK, but it left me stranded at the mall at 8:30 pm. Luckily there was a Sears auto store there so I walked over and bought a battery. Next time I took his advice and replaced it at 4 years.
