Question

Ok, i've got this BEAUTIFUL E60 530d, wich has been mapped and is boasting around 320hp...

everything was fine until the other day... my GF came home on it, parked it... but accidentally left some interior lights on and it drained my battery...

So, i charged the battery.... and it cranks over... but wont start...

Anyone here had a similar problem...

oh yeah, after i crank it over it turns on the ASC+T light in the instrument cluster




Those are OEM M5 rims btw.... and i managed to run 305/30ZR19 and 275/35/ZR19 on them

Bridgestone runflats.... since i hate having a non-full-size spare wheel..

How many HP ?
SBROTFL!





Without LSD donuts aren't donuts, so it's only burnt rubber.

SBROTFL -- translate please...

Diesel Power 4tw

Take it to the shop that remapped it.

No BMW guarantee!

Have you disconnected the battery, left it for a couple of minutes, reconnect a (fully charged) battery and start it?
It's common to get some minor error messages when the battery power was lost at the wrong moment, but what you have sounds more like a problem that needs a reset. Disconnecting the battery does that.

Good luck.
