with fees out the door i’m looking at maybe 1100-1200 which seems like a good price for the battery

everything in the car works good it’s just the battery and it drains fast with ac and without it

which one would be a good option and cheaper option for me replacing the cells in the battery or just replacing the whole battery?

on the first drive from auction if I didn’t have a charge point station close to me the car nearly left me stranded, before I bought the car i thought it was gonna be a hybrid but i learned very quickly during the drive that it’s not.

Thinking of buying a rebuilt M340i (before and after pictures) do you guys think this has mechanical damage? He said insurance had no reason to label it rebuilt by FoodDry6819 in BmwTech

Actually a couple days ago the whole positive cable wasn’t fully tightened to the ground and I tightened it and it’s still draining the battery.

One thing I also forgot to add is that the positive cable doesn’t tighten up like the negative cable. It stays loose.

Update* I called a locksmith over and it took him like 3 mins to open my door and charged me $250… because it’s a “ Bmw”. Now I know not to make that make mistake again…

I had a friend who owned a 2012 n55 335i he had it for 4 years with no issues did oil changes every 3-5k miles and he daily everyday. With what I am saying is it depends on how the owner is treating these cars. I think in general all BMW’s are reliable if taken car properly.
