New replacement part# for battery A 000 982 21 08?

Hey, I am planning to replace my battery on my C250 Coupe, the part# is A 000 982 21 08. When I check official parts website, https://mbparts.mbusa.com/oem-parts/...ery-0019828108 , it mentioned 001 982 81 08 replaced it, while there is a small print say it DOESN'T fit my car, "This part does not fit your 2013 Mercedes-Benz C 250".

So, does the new part# really fit? also, how's the $260 price tag? worth it?

Thanks!

I typically just call a MB parts department, give them the last 8 digits of VIN to confirm part number. I have replaced a battery on my C250 with one from advanced auto parts with no issues, its still in the 200$ range so 260$ is not bad and at least you get the right one for sure. 20 yr experience owning MB is the battery typically lasts 4-5 years but have heard of them lasting longer just haven't for me. The car will do all sorts of weird things when the battery is going bad... misc faults.. hope that helps

Thank you so much for the inputs!

My searches for the correct replacement battery for my 2013 C250 brought me here. Today the engine cranked slower than usual but it started and I know that the original battery that came with the car is almost done. I am open to recommendations. TIA

In case anyone interest:
Original Part# A 000 982 21 08

Four related part#, but not sure which one fit.
001 982 81 08 https://mbparts.mbusa.com/oem-parts/...ery-0019828108
(Website mention it replaces Original Part# A 000 982 21 08, but small print "This part does not fit your 2013 Mercedes-Benz C 250")

000 982 21 08 28 https://mbparts.mbusa.com/oem-parts/...y-000982210828
(No idea on the -28 postfix, and price is doubled)

000 982 32 08 https://mbparts.mbusa.com/oem-parts/...ery-0009823208
(Website mention "This part fits your 2013 Mercedes-Benz C 250")

001 982 82 08 https://mbparts.mbusa.com/oem-parts/...ery-0019828208
(Website mention "This part fits your 2013 Mercedes-Benz C 250")

The original battery on my 2013 C250/W204 has part# 000 982 21 08. I called our local MB parts dep't and they recommended part# 000 982 32 08 for $250 + CA tax. I went to nearby Wally and bought the AGM Group Size H7 / 800CCA. The recommended group size according to the Walmart website is wrong! Good thing I brought in the old battery to match the size. Also, I saved $13 on core charges. I am not expecting Wally's battery to last as long but it's my own business, just sayin'.

Stop by local mb dealer today, they insist 000 982 32 08($175) doesn't fit my VIN (2013 C250 Coupe), but my original part# 000 982 21 08($260) match yours. They said I have to take the risk of "not fit" if purchases, and no return. Any ideas? Thanks,
