I have a 2020 GLB250 and mine was saying "12V battery" on and off for a few weeks. I checked under the hood with a multimeter and my main battery did have a low voltage while the car was off. I replaced it a few weeks back. No more notification.

Pros: no more notification

Cons: low voltage, on and off

In the 166 body MB ML/GL, its under the passenger seat, with barely enough room to reach the rear terminal. It's also so far forward that you can barely grab the fuckin thing. Oh, did I mention that it is a group 49 battery.

Cons: hard to reach

The battery is almost certainly dead.

Something else wrong with your car likely killed the battery and if that's the case buying a new battery will just result in the same problem pretty soon.

Cons: battery is dead

That battery is absolutely cooked, sounds like the cells have sulfated to hell or there's internal damage from deep cycling

The fact that it's only taking 72-94Wh when it should be 600Wh is screaming dead cells, and that voltage drop from 12.8 to 4v in 2 hours is not normal even with parasitic draw

Pros: screaming dead cells

Cons: battery is cooked

The battery is trash - if it was at 4v, the cells are either internally buckled/shorted - or the AGM is damaged and thus will not hold any charge (no capacity).

Pros: check charging voltage/current

Cons: battery is trash
