Where is the battery located in the Mercedes-Benz R350?
2 Answers
The battery of the Mercedes-Benz R350 is located under the front passenger seat, specifically beneath the co-driver's seat. To access it, you need to remove the carpet under the seat and the protective cover above the battery. The Mercedes-Benz R350 typically includes two batteries: a larger one for powering the vehicle's equipment and starting the engine, and a smaller one for emergencies, particularly for emergency gear unlocking. Below is a brief introduction to the Mercedes-Benz R350: 1. The Mercedes-Benz R350 is positioned as a business vehicle, exuding a mature and elegant style, with color options including champagne gold, silver gray, and black. Its appearance is sophisticated, dignified, and strongly business-oriented, making it a classic business vehicle. 2. This model was launched in 2006. The Mercedes-Benz R350 in the domestic market is not produced locally and requires import. It is equipped with an M272KE35 engine, delivering a maximum power of 200 KW and a maximum torque of 350 NM, with a combined fuel consumption of around 12 liters per 100 kilometers. The front and rear suspensions use double-wishbone independent suspension and multi-link independent suspension, respectively, providing excellent shock absorption and a stable chassis.
I've been driving a Mercedes-Benz R350 for quite some time, and the battery is usually hidden under the floor on the right side of the luggage compartment. You need to lift the trunk mat or carpet to see a plastic cover, and once removed, the battery will be exposed. Last time my battery was dead and couldn't start the car, it was quite frustrating spending time locating it. I recommend regularly checking if the terminals are tight, and cleaning them promptly if they're rusty or loose. Additionally, Mercedes designed it this way mainly to optimize rear axle weight distribution and reduce tail weight imbalance issues. Remember to disconnect the negative cable first when replacing the battery—safety first. It's also a good idea to keep a portable jumper cable handy, just in case you break down in remote areas for easier rescue. Regular battery maintenance can extend its lifespan.
