Hi
What battery would my E280 need? Does it have two batteries? My car is key start only - no stop/start system.
VIN: WDB2110542B198601
I'm just asking as car is now nearly 15 years old, and I don't think battery has ever been replaced. Cranks over okay and starts. No warning lights/messages.

Hi Robert
Thanks for your reply. There is a Costco store nearby to me but I have yet to join. They may have the battery I need. @konigstiger See image below. My current battery. Do I really need an AGM battery?
You have an Excide AGM now. so why would you not go with AGM next? The only choice is flooded cell which is a maintenance headache. The advantages of AGM outweigh the disadvantages/

True. After reading more about AGM batteries it seems they are the way to go. Thanks!
