Check the voltage on it. You can use the internal battery voltage meter using the hidden menus:

Mine is at 11.6V .
The batt in new 3weeks ago Bosh, and i have tested the batt with a guy who dos that type of thing and it is all normal. when the engine is on 13v to 14v.
but when the engen is not on i was told it should be at about o.5v. Now it is at about 0.45 nothing ruining.

So not knowing y i have been told to take out the fuse for the CD changer and nav and(i was told to do this, the nav and cd changer seems to be running after i have turnd off the engen) for now the x5 is ok runing normal,up in the morning OK. The test is from Sunday till now so it may be that, but i relay do not know yet i will keep you posted.

I was told that 0.45v is not rely so much that it will run the batt to dead as the batt is new.

But i realy do not think this is y and i will have a look at the fan to night on the ac to see if this is a problem.



thanks,
