Could some one please advise of how to replace my '00 E320 battery. I bought this vehicel used last year and still am very unfamiliar with maintainace as such. Is this some thing that I should take to MB service dept. or can be done by myself ? Which battery branch/capacity should I get ? Are there any other related electrical items should I be awared of if I can replace the battery myself.
Thanks in advance.

It's just like replacing the battery on any other car. You will find it underneath the rear seat.

If you buy an Optima (the reverse terminal one works nicely), you don't need to use the vent tube. Any other battery, make sure you hook up the vent tube. Very simple to replace yourself as Ali indicates, although you will need to resynchronize the windows, headrest and reset the radio code, all easy assuming you have the code.
