Stop start battery

The starter battery i have on is an AGM type.... 110 size which is ready for replacement.
When i look on line using vehicle registration to find a replacement everthing from all different companies are coming back as a 019 size... Which is longer than my battery tray... Looks like there is room for it to go in battery area. but dont think it will sit in the tray but would sit on it.
Any ideas and help appreciated
any ideas other than main stealer which i would have visited prior to bat sh/t
Thanks in anticipation

Looking at the list of 019 AGM batteries on the Tayna website, it appears all are roughly the same measurement.
https://www.tayna.co.uk/car-batteries/types/019-agm/

I would remove the battery you presently have and physically measure it, then price check Tayna's batteries with quotes from MB Grangemouth who discount parts for forum members and post next day delivery for around £5.
I'd personally go for either a Varta or an OEM branded one from the dealer.

Thanks amg.
Yes i can see the measurments onthe 110 and the 019.. depth and width are the same but the 019 is longer.
All dates of the w212 220cdi vehicles which have stop start bats are coming back from tayna and other retailors with the 019 model.
I just wondered if anyone else had this problem and is anyone using and fitting the 019 bat. I will ring grangemouth and see what they have to say

Main dealership are sometimes surprisingly good on price, at least from items I have purchased.

You would then get the correct fitment.
