Something electronic is warning you of a low battery level, not necessarily a car part. Garage door opener?

She's going in Wednesday.

I'll let those of you who are interested know the outcome - whether there is an actual issue, or if I am just horribly embarrassed.

I'm taking her in to my dealership tomorrow (get that noise out of my garage) for a service appointment on Wednesday.

Wish me luck!

Does the alarm on BMW has it's own battery?

No. The MB (model depending - has an aux battery up front, usually for ABS ect)

LOL, that's be the day.

OP - If it's sounding like it's coming from outside the car and a little in-car perhaps it's something in your trunk. I don't know what to tell you. Sorry.
