Our technicians install batteries that meet Mercedes specifications and program the vehicle’s systems as required, ensuring clean integration with the BMS. This approach reduces the likelihood of erroneous alerts, improves fuel economy marginally through efficient charging, and protects other electronic modules from voltage irregularities. Choosing dealership service ensures the proper type is selected, yields immediate benefits in reliability, and avoids long-term costs associated with incorrect parts or improper installation. Because warranty-covered replacements must be performed at a certified dealership, completing the work with us protects your warranty and overall investment in the vehicle.
