That said. Effectively, the battery was tested so next item test the starter is what I've been saying.
Also: more important than a CCA test is to pull up the charge state histogram. That's how I make the call on replacing a bmw battery.
Mine is getting low enough on average I'll replace my battery before next winter but unless I have starting problems before fall I'll wait.

Post 1 reads the battery was tested. As you know that doesn't always mean it was load tested. That's the reason I mentioned to be sure it was load tested before eliminating the battery as the problem. I don't know if battery is good or bad, my input is only about a best practice battery testing and a logical process for troubleshooting.
