My sister works at Costco's in Watford who apprently do the Bosch Silver battery with a 4yr warranty so will see what they charge as if the new one I get needs replacing within that time scale they have a no nonsense refund policy. ![]() I'm am not great with computers and playing around with settings on my car so will see if I can find a coder local to me as I had the CIC upgraded by Jammy78 (Jamel) so will see if he has the capabilities to code/register the battery. Will have a look on my lunch break to see what brand and classification the battery is and will let you guys know. Had that replaced and the car was running fine but was advised to change the battery and the only garage open on a Sunday was SuperTyres who replaced it for me but I did not see them coding it apart from sticking it in and sending me on my way and as it is my first BMW did not know until the last few days that it needed coding so when I rang them up they were quite useless and point blank told me its out of warranty and they rudely did not go further when I questioned if they should have coded it at the time so I know to avoid that garage like the plague! Purchased in back in 2012 and had issues right from the offset with various warnings going off which related to some module that needed replacing which was attached to the Alternator (cant remember what its technical term was called now!) No unfortunately I dont really know the history of the car. I thought if I do need a new battery to go for something with a longer warranty than 2yrs incase I get the same issue again down the line of owning me car! Its £119 and they charge a tenner to fit it or should I be looking at something different. Yuasa Silver Car Battery HSB019 Extra Info Seen someone say their could be a battery drain on the car somewhere but how can I trace the possible cause or should I just have the battery replaced and see how it goes from that? I had SuperTyres fit a battery around 2 1/2yrs ago so I cant replace it under warranty so will need a new battery and have been looking on the net for a decent but not a wallet emptying one and come across the following from Halfords and wanted some opinions on if this is worth going for: Looked on the Forums and found some discussions on the US side stating its the car battery / IBS ( Intelligent Battery Sensor) Thankfully the car starts and for the rest of the day seems fine when commuting back from work etc. Need some help please! Got a E90 330D (2006) and last few days the clocks keep resetting mainly in the mornings when I haven't used the car for more than 12hrs. ![]()
