Are these results typical from the battery test I just ran?
In 2015, the vehicle was an E350 AMG Night Edition Bluetec AUTO.

Problem with starting
From 11.09 to 11.45

Launching/operating Minimum 4.37 Maximum 14.89

Thanks for the help!

I think it's time for a replacement. Both the non-running and cranking voltages are quite low. It may simply be flat, so charge it thoroughly before trying to use it again if you haven't been using it frequently.

11.4 V is only approximately 15% charged!
