Just read my instruction book and you are wrong on several fronts. The battery and all connections are to be made before plugging into the wall. Force mode is just holding the mode button for 5 seconds then selecting the regular charging mode, and there is no mention of a 6v mode at all. The six modes are Standby, 12V, 12V AGM, 12V LITHIUM, 12V REPAIR, and Force Mode.

You are 100% right, same as the battery removal on the car is craziness compared to any other mercedes I ever dealt with. Oil filter way down low in the back like you mentioned. Not fun haha.

The video was a full unboxing, set up, and review not a how to charge a battery episode. So that makes sense there was a lot of information you weren't looking for.

Thanks for reaching out, I hope you enjoyed. I found the method in the episode to be the easiest and quickest method. You may be able to do it another way but this was very easy and quick to do.

Thanks for reaching out, yes this should be very similar of not identical to the cla 250. I appreciate your support and please consider subscribing and leaving a thumbs up of you haven't already. - Full Throttle

@@billhellmueller5780 all you need to do is connect the clamps to the battery. No need to disconnect it from the vehicle. - Full Throttle

I have had good luck with there products,most are made in Germany. Price to quality I have been happy with.

Thanks for sharing and reaching out. Be sure to follow up how everything goes. Makes a huge difference and very happy with how it's holding up so far. Be sure to consider subscribing and leaving a thumbs up! Your support is greatly appreciated 🙏 - Full Throttle

@@admirkapedani2972 Thanks for reaching out. If you enjoyed the episode please consider leaving a thumbs up and subscribing. After the battery was reinstalled and all components back as they should I was able to start the car using the key, pressing the brake pedal and pressing the start button as usual. No other systems had to be reset. Hopefully this helps, if there is something else you are looking for please let me know and I'll try to help! - Full Throttle

@@FullThrottleBHP Didnt required any reset or anything else, because i was told that they need a computer reset ??? Thnx

@@admirkapedani2972 as far as my local dealer they advised no calibration or reset is required. Vehicle has been operating as it should since.

@@garyparadis4454 Yes there is, this is considered a non serviceable or have to pull a front axel but I have a method to avoid all of this! Be sure to stay tuned episode should be up soon! Consider subscribing so you don't miss it! I appreciate your support - Full Throttle

Greatly appreciate your feedback and support 🙏🤘 - Full Throttle

That's a great point I never had to chance to full test performance handling or pushing the car in this episode. They are significantly heavier then Tesla for example so I'm sure performance handling would suffer quite a bit and straight line speed. But for daily driving for most people would never notice the difference. I hope to get my hands on a polestar to properly do some road testing and have more seat time in one to be able to discover any potential downsides like you mentioned!

Thanks for reaching out, would love to know How did they end up making out?

@@FullThrottleBHP no good😭😭 they're still working on a solution as i type this. Looking at also replacing the ATTS module to hopefully help get the axle out

@@jonkino Thank you for reaching out, I hope you enjoyed the episode and if so please consider leaving a thumbs up and subscribing to help the channel. Your support is greatly appreciated. That is certainly no silly question! In today's vehicles it can be difficult to know what type you may have. If your battery is easily accessible it should say on the side and top of the battery. Either AGM / lead acid/ lithium. If the battery is not easily visible another option if you know the battery is original or was replaced with original you could search your make and model on Google or give the dealership a call to find out what kind of battery was factory equiped. Most newer vehicles are running an AGM battery due to the higher volume of electronics but is always better to know for sure to not cause any damage while using the charger. If you have any other questions do not hesitate to reach out. Hope this helps 🙏 - Full Throttle

@@FullThrottleBHP Hi, thanks for the reply. I think your channel is great, best video about this product and I have watched them all. I gave you a thumbs up. I have another question. I looked at the battery labels and I am still no wiser. There is nothing on the labels that says what kind of battery it is. If I could send you a pic of the battery woucald you be able to tell? The other question is,. i don't have a socket set so I cannot get down to the nut that holds the battery down - frustrating. Could I charge the battery with this Noco Genius 1 that i bought without taking it out of the car? Is it safe to do so? Would I need to undo the terminals first or can I just clip on the clips somehow? There are a couple of other things that are connected to the battery that I cannot work out how to take of. Its complicated - I would have thought it would have been really simple. Is there somewhere I can send you the picture of the battery and you could advise me?

@@jonkino I appreciate your support and kind words. Certainly there is no problem just connecting the charger to the battery. No need to remove battery or terminals. If you have Instagram you can send me the picture there at @fullthrottle.bhp or email at fullthrottle.bhp@gmail.com. When you send the photo please let me know the year make and model as well. Look forward to hearing from you soon, - Full Throttle

Hi, sent you an email with pics. Thanks

I appreciate you reaching out with your experience and sorry to hear the issues you are having. I have had good luck with mine over the years but have had many people mention of different issues. Seems to be more people having issues. I would highly suggest reaching out to NOCO support to see what they can do for you and hopefully will be able to replace the unit for anew one if there is a problem with it. I wish I could be more help but greatly appreciate hearing your experience as I will be making a new episode on these and will be mentioning the different issues viewers have experience. I hope you found the episode helpful and please consider subscribing. Your support is greatly appreciated and please keep me updated the outcome. - Full Throttle

Thanks for sharing your experience. How long did you let the charger sit for plugged into the battery? 1amp charger will take over 60 hours to charge a full size 80amp hour battery. It is possible you have a defective unit. I would suggest to reach out to Noco support for a replacement unit if you do believe there are problems. Please keep me posted how it goes! Thank you for your comment and support to the channel. - Full Throttle

If you can find the replacement parts it should be a very similar process. Mercedes uses the same style design for them. I wish I had access to a CLA I would make a video for you but the way it all clicks into the bumper would be very similar.

@@Benjamin-mx7lc Thank you for reaching out! Please consider leaving a thumbs up and subscribing of you have not already. You do not need to remove the battery terminals. You can safely connect the clamps to the battery while it is stil connected to the vehicle. The only time it is recomened to remove the terminals to the battery is if you are planning on using the repair mode feature. If you have any other questions reach out anytime, - Full Throttle

@@FullThrottleBHP i didn't know Genius 1 has repair mode feature?

@@Benjamin-mx7lc wait.. you are comepletely right. Sorry about that when I responded I was thinking of the other episode on the Noco Genius 5.. which has the repair mode. Sorry for the mix up!

Hey thanks for reaching out! YES this will work on your 1999 Mercedes SLK230. This was performed on the 1997 model year but as long as you have a prefacelift with the indicator in the fender this will fit your application. There is a link in the description where you can purchase the product. I have to ask what color is your R170? I hope you enjoyed the episode and please consider leaving thumbs up and subscribing to the channel. It is completely free and your support is greatly appreciated. - Full Throttle

@@FullThrottleBHP my car is black and I’m adding details to it before I decide to sell it keep it.

@@petermiguel8447 always loved the black on the SLK. I wish you luck, if you do decide to sell do you have another car in mind to replace it?

Thank you for your feedback, I am glad to hear you enjoyed the episode! Please consider leaving a thumbs up and subscribing if you have not done so already. Your support is greatly appreciated. - Full Throttle

I appreciate you reaching out... I have to admit I am a bit stumped on that one. Did the charger indicator light ever move off flashing red? The only thing I could think is you may have a defective charger / a massive parasitic draw or one o both batteries were shot to begin with.. I am sorry to hear the trouble you had. Hopefully you have been having better luck with the new batteries. - Full Throttle
