Mercedes c350e 12v battery replacement

Hi, does anyone here have any experience in replacing the 12V battery in a MB C350e? I think mine needs replacing and I don’t want to get it fixed at the dealer.

Why would you ask dealer to replace a battery?

Or a tyre?

Apparently, it’s complicated to replace a 12v battery on the W205 C350e because of the hybrid stuff

Wonder if the OP has Mobilo cover and what the T&Cs would be for buying a replacement battery as a result of a breakdown (or other issue resulting in a call)?

What makes you think replacing a 12v battery is beyond the abilities of an independent Mercedes specialist? (Who will typically charge half the price of a main dealer)

Or even any garage service specialist, such as Kwikfit or Halfords?

You can certainly do it yourself. I did mine myself 2 times and I’m not a pro. Just don’t damage the coolant pipes and sensors for hybrid and stay away from the orange cables.

That YouTube video above was my guidance.

2 men job though
