Why won’t my 190D battery hold a charge?

How often should I replace my car battery?

Car battery lifespan varies depending on a few factors, including driving conditions, accessories, how well it’s maintained, and the type of battery. On average, a car battery lasts about three to five years.

Why is there white, crusty buildup on my 190D’s battery post?

A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can cause a white, crusty buildup to form on the terminals of your 190D car battery. This buildup — known as corrosion — can impede the flow of electricity and cause a range of issues, from poor performance to premature battery failure.

What do I do about corrosion on my 190D car battery?

You can help prevent or get rid of corrosion by regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals. Before cleaning your battery, see your 190D owner's manual to learn how to disconnect the battery cables. After disconnecting the cables, use a mixture of water and baking soda, a wire brush, and a rag to carefully clean the terminals.
