Don’t Just Take Our Word For It

Your instructions are short and simple but to the point! I’m a female and I’m so proud of myself that I just changed the battery to my VW 2016 trendline Turbo and that’s because of you! I also appreciated the info you added at the end above about Calibrating the wheel the wheel to the tracking and the window!!!

I was researching issues with my 2016 GLE450 Amg Coupe and I stumbled on an article written by YOUCANIC. The article was well-written, detailed, and very informative…. Very helpful with a diagnosis of the problem with my car free of charge, and was able to pinpoint the issue to the rear right suspension.

I ended up shipping my Mercedes from Minneapolis to Baltimore Maryland. They fixed it for half the cost and gave me expert communication and advice the whole way along. Before you give up on your hybrid car or allow some dealer to give you a hard time and overcharge you… CALL YOUCANIC

The dealership wanted $500 (to replace the auxiliary battery) so I called YOUCANIC and was told its an easy fix. Their website gave perfect instructions so I bought the battery for $50 and installed it in thirty (30) minutes (I have no experience). If you have a Mercedes don’t waste your time, just go to YOUCANIC.com
