Recently the battery on my 1996 280c died and it was replaced by the Ewing Mercedes in Plano, Tx.

Battery replacement cost : $109
Labor to replace : $100 or so
TOTAL: $225 + tax

I was told the reason for the labor being high was that the computer settings had to be reset and it was going take 1 hr to complete.

I was just wondering if Mercedes are different than any other car with battery replacements? Or was I just fed BS!
