2010 BMW 535i X-Drive OEM Battery
Anybody know what the OEM battery was in this vehicle? Also, when did BMW start going to AGV batteries? Having a heck of a time even finding mine in my trunk???? Manual seems pretty useless for that. I have an AGV battery in my BMW R1100GS motorcycle and hoping I can use that to charge my 535 battery which is currently at 12.1 volts.

Also, don't try and charge your battery from another battery. Jump start... yes. Charge it up... no.

Well I FINALLY found my battery
and son-of-a-gun if it isn;t an Exide battery. After a short drive today it tested at 12.3 Should I considered upgrading it??? PS: Got my Carly today and just opted for the "lite" ap - figure I can always update to the "Pro" ap in the future if I'm not happy. Thanks to all who commented.
