Battery OEM BMW or OEM Volkswagen
The battery on my previous F20 lasted over 12 years before I replaced it last winter. Had enough voltage but bad resistance readings, mechanic advised me to change it for the winter.
I’m just over 10-years on my ‘15 M235i.
I got 12 years out of the original battery on my E90.
My e93 Battery Laster from 08 and I replaced it this year due to it started having Problems. It still kinda worked but I didnt want to have Problems. Still 17-18 years on a battery is bonkers
Changed my battery this year on my 2005 e46 coupe. There wasn’t a date for the old one, but 3 codes and for one (H1B582092) ChatGPT said that it’s 2005 battery, which just sounds insane if true.
I still have oem in my 3 series from 2015 !
I’ve had my id3 5 years now and had very few problems with the car or charging. I’ll get maybe 180 miles on the motorway but close to 240 miles cross country. Manchester to Sheffield to Nottingham and back to Manchester left me with around 50 miles range, but I can’t get from Manchester to London, or Manchester to Glasgow without charging.
I also just had a new battery installed by BMW, $600 for the honor.
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.
Dealer measured my 2021 m340xi battery at 700cca last week under load test (vs 850 cca capacity) and said battery needed to be replaced. Terminal was stamped 26th week of 2020.
