Weszaid,

Sorry I can't help...just empathize, with you! My car is in for the 4th time...after having BMW Assist come to jump start the car. The battery has drained four times within the last 5 months. The battery was replaced once. The dealer says I should use it every day, but that's bunk. I let it sit 2 days...sometimes five at the most and it dies. My other cars sit for weeks and start with no hesitation. The car is in for the 4th time, going on the 12th day. I've been told the battery drains even when they replace the battery. They've been diagnosing for a while to try to determine what's draining the battery. I've shown them almost every solution this forum has provided to no avail. Lemon Law seems like the next solution...to get most, but not all of my $$$ back! Good luck to you...and to me!

 

Hey Birthday Boy, You plug them in after you have the car fully charged to keep it charged NOT to charge a dead car.
Cheers

Check the battery compartment for water ingress. I had the same problem and had to get it towed. It was due to an assembly issue witht he rear light cluster. I blew the heck out of the ectronics.! good luck.
