My problem was a dead cell in the battery - but it gets better.

Apparently I don't drive enough and BMW won't cover the battery.

I have only purchased four new BMWs in the last five years and drove all of them the same.

I deal with a lot of battery conditions from Golf carts to the marine
environment and a dead cell has always equated to a fault with the battery, not the usage.

The dealer made good as I will not purchase any more BMWs if I end up paying for this one.

I am disappointed with the quality in this 2010 X5 and will still need to reassess any additional purchases.

Also advised BMW NA of my intentions.
