Ok, I have a 04 530i and my car wouldn't start all of a sudden and gave me all kinds of errors codes while trying. So I check the battery and its black in the viewing window.. So I take it out to change it myself and the guy at BatteriesPlus said it was bad... only 100cca... so I get a new one and put it back in, car starts , great, but now I got Service Engine light and Increased Emissions warning. I coulnd't find any information about this after changing a battery. Anyone know what could be the problem? I guess if I have to take it to the dealer I will.
