Perfect fit for 2015 W212 Mercedes E class

Needed a new battery after numerous Covid-19 lockdowns and home working meant the original battery was over discharged and not in good health even after several cycles of charging with a CTEK AGM charger.

Used a few sites to find out what battery I needed and was bewildered by all the allegedly compatible options excluding the options for the auxiliary battery in the boot.

I knew I needed an AGM battery as my car has stop/start. However options given were:

Type 096 e.g. Bosch S5 A08
This is too small and did not match the spec of my existing battery. Only has 70Ah capacity and 760A CCA

Type 115 e.g. Bosch S5 A11
This is the exact spec of the OEM battery that came with my car in terms of size and spec. 80Ah capacity and 800A CCA

Type 019 e.g. Bosch S5 A13
It was tempting to go for a better spec battery 95Ah capacity and 850A CCA as it was a compatible option shown for the car. However, the battery is too big for the battery tray. You have about 330mm max I reckon for the battery tray but this battery is 353mm in length.

For reference the OEM Battery out of my car was:
A 001 982 81 08 made by Varta (incidentally Varta make the same car batteries for Bosch)
Length: 315mm
Width: 175mm
Height: 190mm
Capacity: 80Ah
CCA: 800A

Hope that helps!

Best Quality Replacement Batteries.

Bosch Batteries are a close match for manufacturer's original specifications, and a trusted name in the motor trade. Perfect match for size and clamping method. Cheaper brands are available, but false economy.Read full review

Bosch car battery.

Only just installed it in my car but the « start / stop feature now works. The previous battery, obviously, no longer had the required voltage for this to happen. 5 year guarantee is also reassuring.

Perfect for Mercedes W204 220Cdi Diesel Estate (2010)

The battery was listed for my vehicle even though mine is a non stop/start model. Naturally being concerned about this, I checked with Bosch who agreed it’s okay for my vehicle. How happy am I? I now have a vastly superior AGM battery fitted to my car with ample power to start it every time and a much faster re-charge time, which is perfect for the short runs that I regularily do. I can now rely on my vehicle both summer and winter as the AGM battery produces more cranking power when cold than the standard fitment (OE) battery it has replaced.Read full review

A good quality battery.

Expensive for a car battery but compared to similar comparable a good price & quick delivery, the stop/start on my Landrover had stopped but the new battery got it working again. It has a 4 yr warranty that's better than most.Read full review

Bosch S5A11 Car Battery

I can't say just yet how the battery will perform longterm as I've only just recently purchased it.!
What I can say is, "it has so far, perfectly made my car (2013 Jaguar XF 2.2D) do all the things that my car is supposed to do.!".Read full review

Brilliant battery.

Good cranking facility, seems to hold its charge for a long time. I left my car for nearly 3 weeks with an active alarm on and it had no issues starting up.

This is 22kg and big.

I hope it lasts pass the warranty period.Read full review

Quality Bosch battery.

Bosch AGM battery, so one of the best - Supplied by Tayna, came fully charged and immediately sorted out the warnings/stop start not working.
I can recommend Tayna (supplier) on Ebay as well, I have bought several batteries from them over the years.Read full review

Top quality battery at great price.

Great top quality battery. My stop start system had not worked for a year, although the car started fine - the new battery cured this problem and the stop start came on within 100 yards.

AGM batteries are the way forward

At this price you need to be think AGM first especially with cars with finicky electronics. It can make the difference between smooth running and repeated issues, especially on older cars
