Seem simple but I cannot find the battery on my new V167. Anyone know how to get at it? Just need to know where its located, I can figure from there.

It is under the drivers seat.

Move it all the way forward, and coming from the back seat side you will find the cover.

Good luck

Is it true that on right-hand drive vehicles that battery switches to that side, or does it stay on the left?

As confirmed by PhilAMG, battery is under passenger seat on right-hand drive cars.

I did not notice that the OP was not in North America.

PhilAMG would know better than me when it comes to right-hand drive cars.

On RHD cars (UK and others), the battery is on the left side, under the passenger front seat.

So apparently on all GLEs & GLSs.

Good morning,

Thank you everybody for the information. I want to have full access to the battery under the driver´s seat, by doing it the right way and not damaging anything in the car. Has anybody done this that can help me out?

I am sending pictures of the battery location and my request is to know how to get everything off (plastics), to have access to the battery completely.

Best regards

The first time my battery went dead on my 350ML it was an eye opener that I couldn't get to my battery because I couldn't move the seat. Why they didn't leave it in the trunk / cargo area I can't figure out. They did leave a place under the hood to jump the battery at least!

That location is ideal from space utilization, weight distribution and length of wire runs standpoints, and there is not much need to get to the battery except to replace it (a PITA).
