Replace the Battery in the Mercedes CLA

Model: Mercedes CLA C117, X117 - Years 2013-2019
Part: Battery

Need to replace the battery in your CLA? Is the battery due for a change? Let's go through the removal of the old battery located in the engine compartment. Open and lift the hood by releasing the latch with your fingers, then secure it. Once the engine compartment is open, you'll find the battery under the plastic cover. Remove the cover, unscrew the securing bolts above the battery terminals, then take the battery out of the engine compartment. After obtaining the new battery, install it in the engine compartment (same voltage). Close the hood after maintenance is complete. Start the vehicle and test the operation of the Mercedes CLA.
