Hi All
Looks like my battery is on its way out! My car starts OK but I am constantly getting the message that my convenience functions are temporarily unavailable. I have had this various times before but now seems a very regular occurrence. I checked and the battery is stamped 2008 so its over 5 years old.
Anyway what is recommended? The current one is a genuine MB, but thinking others are probably as good and guessing cheaper!?
Part no. A 005 541 10 01
ETN no. 595 901 085
850 A
95 Ah
12 V
I have looked at Eurocarparts site and there are a few options but some seem to differ in performance. Ie there is a 'Bosch' which is the most expensive and exactly matches my current spec whereas there is a 'Lion' branded one which is cheaper but has 950 A but only 90 Ah.
Will this make any difference or can / should I just get the cheapest?
I have no idea on this so any advice much appreciated.
Cheers
