caseyjay is on a distinguished road
I tried the OBC battery test - 13.5v when driving, 11,5v when I come to a stop but oddly restarted and drove again. Came home and did the 5 mins with main beam on/engine off test, now drops to 10.4v and no start.

Am guessing I've been lucky so far it's not stranded me already.

Now I need to take a trip this weekend and will be away > 1wk. Normally I'd buy online but not going to receive it in time.

Either I buy local now - Fulmen/Exide
or
I go with my battery charger/leads and wait until I can get a 'better' brand.

What would you do? It's my first BMW, normally I'd buy Bosch for my Audis, not sure of Fulmen? Any views?

thx
