The morning started off with a VERY uncomfortable feeling of an X5 that didn't want to start.

At first, it sorta started but wouldn't "turn over."
Then it seemed to start and went into DRIVE but had no power.
Then it hesitated but did start, and off to the gym we went.

Then it wouldn't start at all and started flashing warnings..
First was the dreaded "excessive battery discharge."
Then chassis warnings, then ABS, etc.

I was on the phone with BMW Assist when it went completely dead.

I am.. Unhappy. It's one month shy of it's second birthday, about 39K miles.

They're coming to take it away (ha ha) but..
Simple dead battery or what?
