Finally someone who shows how to and not just run their mouth. Thank you.
What a simple job. Thank you for saving me the time and money especially during this COVID=19 pandemic. Thank you, thank you again.
Thank you for a detailed process that works to replace the battery
Tips for others. At 00:00:15, I broke the third clip, far right. Careful. Thanks for video
Excellent DIY video! Great Job
Exactly what I needed. Thanks man.
Thanks for posting this.
Great job, thank you this video was exactly how to “ correctly!
Very thorough, thank you
Hello, nice video, thank you! Quick question: will a radio code be needed on a 2013 C300 4Matic Sport with Navigation? Not sure if this is something Mercedes does when you switch out your battery.
Thanks for video! Helped a lot, and resulting in saving a lot for my replacement!
Best instructions
Thank you 👍
Nice benz. I tried to comment on your undercoating video but its disabled. Was going to say I thought that there would be balancing issues with the driveshaft undercoating but it looked so thin that I guess it would not affect it. Cool video tho. Also, tap/hold down on screen once underneath if you want the white balance to lock.
Thanks to you I replaced my battery without no problems thanks you sir 💯💯
Thanks mate, saved me 200$ haha
Thanks!
do i need a memory saver to do this in my 2011 mercedes c300?
w204 c200 cgi yb2011 / did it just like that , no problem at all ! /no further setups necessary even the time set up itself after ten minutes ride./ All settings just like before ! Great thanks for the video thanks to mercedes for the easy installation ! Refer to the manual if insecure it is described just like that !
Best video! !!
Thank you
what are the tools you used? Is that a 3/8 wrench and extension bar? Can you post links please. I got a c300 and looking to do my own fixes
Hi,can I charge battery whilst it is still connected to the car,by this I mean a battery charger
Hello, good video. Do you need to use a memory saver to change this battery?

I reaaly needed to get this answer. Esp for Mercedes.
Noob question: how can you tell which replacement battery to buy when it’s not specified in the manual? Thanks.
As mentioned bellow, are you not supposed to connect it to another battery while replacing it, so it doe not loose power while doing it and the computers don't reset?

The mechanic had me turn on the engine, then swapped out the battery like this video
Quick question, did you reconnect the little vent plastic thing on the left side of the battery?

Yeah you connect it to the new battery
If I went into AutoZone and told them year and model should the battery work
Thanks for the info. Is it the same process for a 2015 cla 250 And also Is battery tender is not needed?
Where can I buy it?
Does a 2008 c300 have an aux battery???
👍
Do u need to program this battery or no?
Hey so I installed a new battery according to your instructions (thanks for that!) but my new battery seems to be slightly smaller than the original that I replaced so the clamp doesn’t necessarily hold it in place. Anything to worry about? Car started finely and everything seems to be functioning properly. I just bought the new battery according to Costco personnel by the way.

The Parts store will recommend The Duralast H-6 if you just say I need a battery but it's about 3 inches smaller than the original OEM... the H-7..matches the battery box.. and they're the same price but it has more CCA

Depends on the engine size. 3.0L takes H7-AGM aka 48-AGM and 3.5L takes H8-AGM aka 94R-AGM . If you had a 48 installed and it’s too small, yours must take a 94R. Take it back and have them give you the right battery. They should ask you engine size when choosing the right size battery. Some places don’t and just tell you whatever the first thing on their list is
What is that long piece added to you socket wrench?

a socket extension.
So there are no reset issues because you did not maintain continuous flow of current during the replacement.
So a power booster is not needed
Hey it looks like the bad battery light indicator on the battery wasnt triggered. Does that mean we can't trust the battery light?

Why do they want $440 To replace my son's battery in his C300 Sport (eco)? Does it need two?
The battery I’m buying was at advanced auto the instruction say professional installment , wow they try to steal money off you when this video shows how easy it is 123 abc saved me money man 💪🏾
I just had AAA replace my OEM H7 with their H8 last week on my 2011 C300. He did not bolt it down due to the battery’s larger size. It basically fills the battery’s box. He stated, “it’s not going anywhere”. At the time I wasn’t aware of possible problems/concerns. But I’ve been worrying. Is this a safety issue? Please state the pros and cons of having the H8 instead of the H7. P.s. I don’t drive the car much - hardly at all. Especially since the pandemic. Thank you!

I know you asked this question months ago but a battery not properly tied down can move and if the positive terminal comes in contact with the body of the car you will have fire. I have seen this happen a lot so please make sure you have the right size battery. Batteries can move when you hit a hole in the road

Secure the battery. Mercedes did, so should you. Definitely a safety issue.

How is that the owner's fault? The manufacturer put that crap there and BTW every other manufacturer does that. At least get your insults right if you plan on doing so.

He's probably a troll, but if not I'd hate for him to find out the fact that 95% of all car manufacturers have mostly plastic parts in thier bays. That's been a fact since like the early 2000s.
