Battery Exide or OEM Mercedes
Exide are great batteries and are a tier 1 supplier with Yuasa, Bosch, Varta.
This just happened to me last month on my 2017 C43 on the OEM battery. I guess five years is typical on these newer MB.
IMHO, Exide works well till the last second and then dies off without any symptoms. Amaron shows alot of symptoms like extra cranking and lights dim for interior and dash lights when it's nearing its demise. Hence I moved to amaron. So should you.
After reading all replies and knowing the price of the dealers option, I took my chance with a Exide battery AGM 12-23, it was a perfect fit.
the only time it failed me was when the battery died after 100k miles.
I don't think they are good at inverters, but I have used their battery for ups which lasted 4 years, now i am using the second one which completed one year
Am schimbat eu baterie după 2 ani. Aveam o localizare gps consumator continuu și nu mișcam mașina zilnic. Atat i-a trebuit, și vorbim de Exide, nu de Rombat.
Just bought a new G63, same issue!
I’ve had it 3.5 years and it just started doing the “Stop Vehicle Leave Engine Running” thing about a month ago.
Left with exide crap.
