Battery Duralast or OEM Mercedes

Recently installed the Duralast Platinum. One week in and everything is working like a new battery should be.

I drove over to Autozone and asked to borrow their battery/alternator scanner. CC amperage was way down, so just threw a new battery in there, and all is good. Ended up costing $230 even with tax, and $22 core charge credit for their Duralast with a 3 year warranty.

Just a heads up I had same issue with my Titan and it was the battery. I purchased a cheaper battery and 6 months in I get only a click when trying to start truck. Sometimes would start sometimes not. Then I bought the same battery again to see if that would fix the issue. This time it didn\u2019t start at all with the same type of battery, tested 100% charge and 100% battery life. So I said let me try buying a better quality battery just to see if anything happens, sure enough the truck started. It has kept starting ever since.

Duralast is a decent brand, I’ve always went with the gold, no real reason just that it’s what was in the car before.

my 2010 4x4 needs a new battery. This one lasted 4 years Duralast Gold.

I usually get a Duralast Gold from pepboys. Not the cheapest model, but not the super premium one either. Most CCA.

Both Duralast Golds. Went with Neverstart AGM from wally world about 2 months ago.

I’ve had it 3.5 years and it just started doing the “Stop Vehicle Leave Engine Running” thing about a month ago.

Exactly the same issue I am currently facing with a month old GLC300. No resolution yet

I had the same problem. My car was brand new too but was sitting for a bit before it was sold to me. I brought it in to get charged a few times but the message was still coming up and I was definitely driving it enough. Eventually they just changed the battery under warranty.
