I just replaced mine a few months ago with one from autozone. It was about $90 and fits fine. Comes with the overflow tube and is an OEM fit. If you want to spend some extra money, I hear the Yellow Optima battery is a good choice. About $125, but I didn't go with that one since it looked like the dimensions were different, I didn't want to deal with fitment issues.

I believe that is exactly what he was asking with his original post.... damn, man. Practice some eitiquette.

Amazing....I understood his post immediately.

I, also looked at an Optima, but the dimensions were not close enough to the original. I went with a Duralast. Perfect fit & it has the overflow tube.

get one from the dealer and have mb roadside reaplace it at no cost. battery will be about $120.

What's that overflow tube for anyways? I see a clear thin tube running to my battery, i suppose it's this you dudes are talking about..


I'd need to exchange my battery as it's getting really dodgy lately..probably the factory battery (says Mercedes-Benz/Varta on it), and as the car is from 2000 it's no wonder!

Can i just pop any 100Ah battery with the same dimensions in there or do i have to take that overflow thingy into consideration?

Odyssey are the best I've found if they have one to fit: http://store.summitracing.com/egnsea...p?N=400109+115

AGM can go 2 years w/o charging and their rated duty life is phenomenal.
