Hi, Does anyone own one of these popular battery chargers (CTEK MXS 5.0)? I recently purchased one and used it today, but after about 3 hours of having it on charge I went to check it and when I touched the unit it was VERY hot. It was soo hot that I decided to switch it off rather than run it...

I'm sure this has been asked many times before but I'm reading conflicting things. I want to Recond and charge the battery in my W212 using my CTEK 5.0. CTEK says I don't need to disconnect it from the car and to connect it directly to the battery terminals. MB's owners manual says to "Only...

I'd like to connect my CLS (W219) up to my CTEK Charger. I can't seem to find any information about the process? Does the car have any charging points under the bonnet, rather than having to charge via the trunk? The charger has settings around AGM, would this be the type used in the...

Best price it's been for a while... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00FC42HAA/?tag=amazon0e9db-21 Excellent bit of kit and the recon once a year function really helps keeping the convenience functions message away.

Hi, I would like to buy a CTEK charger to keep the rear battery topped up. Which model do I need and where is the best place to buy from price wise? cheers

Hi all, I've had a couple of instances where I am getting random warnings on the dash in my 2006 ML500. The first happened during lots of short runs where the seat heaters were on, rear screen etc and a week of short journeys. The second was in similar circumstances but slightly different...

Recently purchased a whole load of CTEK extras including this bumper / protective cover. However, purchased it for MX7 which it does not fit. If you have a 3.6m - 5amp model it will fit fine.

I have to leave my car several months at a time while I work overseas, so have just bought a CTEK trickle charger to float the battery of my CLC while I am away. As I will be plugging and unplugging regularly, I would like to install a permanent plug in the car to attach the CTEK. I have bought...

Hi, I currently have a Ctek xs3600 battery charger, I only drive my car in good weather, so it won't be getting much use over the next few months. The car a ( 2006 CLS 350 ) last week had a service B at the main dealer, no advisories! ( car has FMBSH ). Before the car went in for a service I...

Just bought a CTEK MXS 5 battery charger for my SLK 200 0n a 55 plate. it's garaged ove winter and the battery tends to run down when the car isn't used. the instructions with the CTEK do not say to remove the vent caps on the battery while the battery is charged. I've seen several posts...

So I bought one of these after some good reports on here as to their usage. It is currently hooked up to my 124 which is not seeing a lot of use right now. I have not seen the "lights" on the charging indicator get above 2. Car always starts fine just wondering why the lights on the...

I have just taken delivery of CTEK battery charger MXS 3.6 and I have a couple of questions, which will be simple to all of you chaps. I own a C63 AMG (no comments please). I want to charge the battery in situ still attached to the veh. I am trying to work out which clamp to attach to...

I need some advice. I am not using my W211 E320cdi very much at the moment and have got a Ctek XS7000 charger to condition the battery. Depending on whether the battery is a negatively grounded battery or postively grounded battery dictates how you connect the charger up. Could someone...
