Try Googling "battery for 2019 mercedes benz e450" and you'll find a lot of places that do carry the battery for your car.

For the record guys. I did know the part number and did search it online. They are either not in stock or no shipping.
This is why I asked in the first place.
Thanks, John

Look for a 2018 E400 (same engine) or even E43AMG. I think it's lazy filtering on the vendor's part. I checked Costco, which sent me to Interstate batteries.

W213 Night Edition 220d. (ML250 SLK350AMG)
I purchased a Varta F21 Silver Dynamic battery. It's the same as the OEM one.
I had it installed and it was just plug and play
Before the battery swap my start stop stopped working. It's working now.
I have an E220d 2017

I may be missing something but I sense you guys are overthinking this. I bought a Duracell at Batteries plus. They plug some kind of electronic device under the dash to retain everything while they're doing the install and the car doesn't even know anything is happening. They dropped the new battery in and the eco shutoff starting working again. It had stopped before and I took that as my sign that it was time for a new battery on the 60 month old car.

Oh, you mean something like a battery charger (12v) to connect the positive and negative wires under the hood prior to replacing the battery.

Did the new battery has the same amp as the original one?

I am thinking getting a new one from either Costco (if they have one) or the Interstate from the autoparts store.

It looked just like the portable batteries that they use to do emergency jump starts except without the cables and alligator clips. It had a cable and adaptor that they plugged in somewhere under the steering wheel. I imagine it just maintained power to the components while the battery was disconnected. Everything worked normally afterward, all the radio presets, seat memory, etc. were the same. Any shop that installs batteries professionally should have one. The install was simple except that they needed a 10" extension on their socket wrench to loosen and tighten the tie downs. I don't have one of those so I wouldn't try it myself even if maintaining power wasn't an issue.
The battery was the same dimensions and the rated CCA Amps were higher than the OEM battery. I'm sure Costco has something compatible. I just used my local Batteries plus store because they were convenient and I had received good service from them previously. I think the list price on the battery was $260 and I got a 10% discount.
