Battery OEM Honda or OEM Mercedes
Reviews
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.
Pros: five years typical
My '11 Fit had a aftermarket 151R battery. Mine occasionally produced a similar noise such as this on cold day starts. I think the noise stems from the starter, perhaps the starter solenoid that doesn't retract after you release the key from start position. My issue went away after I replaced the battery
Pros: issue went away
Cons: noise on cold starts
Vehicle:
Honda Fit
the only time it failed me was when the battery died after 100k miles.
Pros: reliable
Cons: battery failure
Mileage: 103000 km
Yes, very true. The closest you get to 100% SoC, the more the battery degrades. The ideal SoC would be at around 50-60%. But 80% is also good. (My EV has its lowest limit at 80%).
Pros: 80% is good
Cons: battery degrades at 100%
Vehicle:
Honda
I’d take a Honda battery over a Subaru one any day if the week.
Pros: preferred over Subaru
The stock battery in my 2016 Honda died after four years.
Pros: decent battery life
Vehicle:
Honda
Exactly the same issue I am currently facing with a month old GLC300. No resolution yet
Cons: same issue, no resolution
I had the same problem. My car was brand new too but was sitting for a bit before it was sold to me. I brought it in to get charged a few times but the message was still coming up and I was definitely driving it enough. Eventually they just changed the battery under warranty.
Cons: problem persisted, battery replaced under warranty
Vehicle:
Mercedes
The batteries Mercedes uses seem to be really poor quality. I have a daily class and it seems they are changing the battery every 1.5 years so far on average…
Cons: poor quality, frequent replacement needed
I've dealt with this issue on both of my newer AMG vehicles. My older ones never had this problem. From my understanding, this is caused by the new mbux system being a bit of a power hog. I eventually had to invest in a trickle charger, and I have to charge both of my AMGs 3-4 times per year. It gets worse as your battery gets toward the end of its lifespan.
Cons: power hog, frequent charging needed, issue worsens
