I took a drive in my i4 a couple of weeks ago that estimated I'd get home with 4% battery. Guess what I rolled into the garage with..... 4% battery. These modern systems are pretty damn accurate.
I just replaced both batteries in my 2018 740iX. Was original battery (build date was Aug 2017) so actually lasted 8 years which was surprising given other problems I had with the car!
I still have the original BMW battery on my 2005 e46 325i , I used a battery tester on it and still say it’s good
Everyone likes to shit on BMW for being too complicated when it comes to having to register batteries with the car, but this is the result. Batteries in other cars die way more quickly.
I just changed my 2018 F36’s battery a few months ago. They really do last a long time.
2016 328i. Original battery still alive and kicking!
Mine did this around 30k miles. The battery was swollen and definitely the problem, but all battery scanners showed that it was good
Not going to say yes or no,but get a battery check before buying it ???? Bmw warranty covers the battery up 6year or 100.000km,so no more battery warranty.. It has 6 modules to replace(not 1 battery) and last time i checked it was around 1000 per piece without labour. My 2020 330e with 98000km had this check and it was at 84% state of health,so this one might not be looking so great.. but get it checked anyway
Warranty covered my 2022 Mach-E battery replacement but it would've cost $12k out of pocket.
The battery lasted about two years. I had a company car at the time and only drove the BMW on my days off, and didn't drive long or far. The short, infrequent drives basically never allowed the battery to completely charge, resulting in it's early death.
