Answers to Your 300SD Car Battery Questions

Get answers to common car battery questions, from Firestone Complete Auto Care. If you have battery questions that are Mercedes-Benz 300SD-specific, visit your nearest store. Our expert techs have the answers you need.

  • Why won't my 300SD battery stay charged? A car battery that needs to be jump-started every time is as good as dead. The battery may be too old. Or, you may have been leaving your car doors ajar and the lights on overnight. Stop by for a free battery test at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.
  • What do you do with my old 300SD battery? We recycle it, taking care of both your car and the Earth.
  •  How much do DieHard batteries cost for your Mercedes-Benz 300SD? Mercedes-Benz 300SD batteries can be affordable, especially when there's an available battery coupon. The best part is every DieHard battery comes with a free replacement warranty and extra coverage with DieHard Assurance.
  • How often should I replace my car battery? The typical 12-volt car battery may last three to five years, depending on the type of battery, the driving conditions, and how well the battery is maintained.
  • Why is there white, flaky stuff around my 300SD’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 300SD 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.
  •  How do I clean corrosion off my 300SD vehicle battery? Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your 300SD’s electrical system running smoothly. Before cleaning, reference your owner’s manual for instructions on how to disconnect the battery cables. Once the cables have been disconnected, gently clean the terminals with a mixture of water and baking soda, a wire brush, and a rag.
