Guys I just bought 100 AH battery a month ago, however, on parking the car for one week I discovered that the new battery can't start the car again.

What the duration that MB can stay idle that will make a new battery to run flat.

Can I approached the seller to replace the battery for me, since I am suspecting the battery is fake.

You might have a drain or draw. It's not the battery I believe.

You have a parasitic drain,I am still struggling with that right now. By the way how much did you get the battery?

I bought the battery for 85 k
nakoks(m): 12:06pm On Jan 05
Which 100ahm battery is 85k now? Everstat 100ah Korea is over 120k. If you are parking a benz for more than 3 days it's best to remove the terminals. The security in the car depletes the battery. That said I think you might still have something draining the battery and you definitely bought a substandard battery.

Let's disagree to agree. You have a very strong battery. Use the one poster bought for 85k let's see if it will crank after two weeks.

Am curious to know the gear oil you use. You can't just use any Benz gear oil. Each oil has its own specification example......MB 236.15
MB. 236.17
MB. 236.21
The one I bought for a client is use for. ML350 2013 it has the year range of ML you can use it for. So take that into mind. You don't usually hear of Benz having gear issues as long as you use the genuine fluid.

It is better to park the car and save money for a Grade A tokunbo transmission. I repeat avoid fixing that transmission.

If any mechanic tells you he can fix the transmission please take race and run from that mechanic. There is no point fixing it and after 3months back to square........

Once you are able to get a tokunbo transmission please use the appropriate Benz fluid that matches with the year of the Benz. Make sure when the mechanic fixing the transmission has a clean environment to avoid Contamination to avoid you going back to square 1......

Benz is not easy to maintain, na person wey chop belly full dey drive Benz..

my client that I got the gear oil spend over 250k for the. Original gear oil from Benz dealership....

Goodmorning

I sell MB236.14, 236.15 and 236.17 in wholesale prices in Nigeria. Direct from DAIMLER AG . Also MB229.5 Original Synthetic Mercedes Oil. Me

Good day House. The fuel pump relay in my W202 packed up (the one in the trunk) and we couldn't find a spare part shop to purchase a replacement today being a Sunday. The Electrician has done a direct connection and the car started. My question is, can I use the car and run my errands today (and maybe school runs tomorrow morning) without damage to my fuel pump, before I get the relay fixed tomorrow?

Hello Benz lovers,

I want to the Benz gang and I am thinking of going for 2016/2017 GLE350.

Is it a reliable car and what are the major issues with it.

I read it somewhere that it has a leaking sunroof and transmission issue. How true is this?

Thank you.
bayo2018: 1:20pm On Jan 24
Good morning House
Please I just purchase a 2014ML350 last year entry-July (owner ed it Nov)
Owner upgraded it to GLE 350
so the dashboard is showing Service AF exceeded by 18.3k miles
Can anyone recommend a good and reliable Engineer I can use to service the car ?
I read here that one doesn’t have to use any type of oil for the MB, so I saw the recommended oil is the MB 229.51 or MB 229.52 oils.
But the mechanic is telling me I can use Star oil bla bla.
I asked the previous owner the type of oil he used on it but he said he hasn’t change the oil since it entered (I don’t know if this is false).
Please kindly help me house
This is my first car and ion wanna go through any mistake whatsoever
Thanks.
