I have 220cdi. 2011. It's got the original battery unbelievably.
Anyway, brake hold and eco have been yellow for years according to the wife.
It's getting sluggish starting recently so I have a new battery in the garage from some other car .
The mercedes has a 80ah 800 cca battery.
I've just put on a 63ah 450 varta battery.
Brake hold and eco has gone green straight away and start stop works. so the battery was clearly dying.
Question is will this 63ah smaller battery be ok for a while ?
Any reason I cant use it ?
