Hi everyone, Happy New Year! I am about to purchase a Foxwell NT510 to use on my 2008 X5 3.0si (and also my 2002 330ci). I think this is a great scanner, however, I was researching reviews & feedback on Amazon as well as other sites and it appears many people can’t get the Foxwell to fully register the battery if they change the battery type or capacity. (All they can select is Battery replacement - same as the original).

Can anyone confirm here that the Option 2 menu is displayed and allows you to select these changes (shown in bold)?

Register the new BMW battery with NT510:

3. Select BMW. Scan for VIN. It will automatically look up the VIN number. Once VIN is found press OK.

4. Scroll down to the Body menu 4.

5. Scroll down to Power Supply (Battery) and press Enter.

6. Select option 2 for Battery registration.

In the next screen, you can perform the following.

Register new battery. Battery replacement is the same as the original.
Change battery capacity to higher or lower.
Change battery type between AGM and lead acid battery.

If the Foxwell can’t select/save these changes then please advise what might work. Thanks in advance for your help and advice!
