Battery Replacement Tip
After 6+ years and 77K miles of fine service the original battery in my W210 quit this morning. I want to give everyone a tip regarding replacing your Mercedes battery.
After first speaking with my dealer about the problem, they were kind enough to tell me that I could call the 800 Mercedes number and have them come out to jump start the battery or replace it. If replacement was needed, they would only charge for the battery and not for labor. I was amazed Mercedes would do this for my old '98 without a warranty. I verifyed this with the person at the 800 number and he agreed, but said it was up to each dealership whether labor would be charged. Sure enough, the M class service SUV arrived 1-1/2 hours later and the tech replaced the battery. I was charged only for the battery, and nothing for labor. As a person that's not normally impressed with Mercedes service, this time I was extremely happy and surprised that Mercedes took care of the problem promptly and at no labor cost.
