If your battery is bad, call roadside. You will be money ahead. They install the correct battery and reset the computers for only the price of the battery. If you go to the dealer, you will be charged for the installation labor too.
The Benz OEM battery is larger than those usually found in the aftermarket. Optima battries are OK for racing, but they are no better than the OEM battery. In your car every available Optima battery is undersized. Your sound system will be fine with the OEM battery.

Your sound system will absolutely be fine with the stock battery. Roadside is the way to go.

For those of you who called roadside, how much did it cost for the replacement?
