2000 CLK 230 KOMP A
MB recommended battery? PLEASE HELP!
Hi,
Two weeks ago I bought - CLK 230 KOMPRESSOR A , 2000 year model W208.
I left it for a few days in the garage and when i came back car wouldnot open - lost power completely. I was only able to open the door&boot manually. I suspect that the battery is no longer works and thats the main reason for the power loss. I might left something switched on (radio) a few days back But I am not sure, anyway I am thinking to buy a new battery and strugling to find correct one.
Does someone knows which battery is recommended by MB for this model? i.e. capacity , CCA, type, size and so on.
I would appreciate your help.

If you have the original battery, you can look at the sticker on it. The sticker will have the word "Kaltstarstrom" followed by a number. I believe Kaltstarstrom is "cold start current". Unfortunately, I don’t know where the reserve capacity is written.
