Compatibility and fitment checks
Check the vehicle roof-load limit, the approved Mercedes-Benz carrier system, bar spacing, tailgate clearance and total vehicle height. The permitted roof load includes the box, carriers and cargo.
Before purchase, compare the complete number with the existing item and request confirmation against the vehicle identification number where vehicle-specific fitment is involved. Also check dimensions, connectors, mounting points, colour and any required option codes.
Installation and use considerations
Mount the box centrally on approved crossbars, tighten the integrated fasteners to specification and distribute cargo evenly. Recheck attachment after the first journey and before long motorway trips.
If the work affects electrical systems, vehicle coding, cooling, wheels or any safety-related component, professional installation is the sensible option. Inspect the delivered item before fitting and keep its packaging until compatibility and function have been confirmed.
Who should consider this product?
This product is most relevant to owners and workshops that have already identified A0008400600 as the correct number or are comparing it during a VIN-based parts search. It is less suitable as a speculative purchase based only on a photograph or broad model description.
Our verdict
The genuine Mercedes-Benz XL 590-Litre Roof Box is a strong option for maximum family carrying capacity when the vehicle and carrier system can safely accommodate its size and loaded weight.
