i haven't seen that yet but it seems like a real concern....

it's in the garage during the week... i ride on weekends...and mostly local driving... probably not enough time to properly recharge the battery...

only a matter of time before i experience the same...

has anyone upgraded their battery or had it upgraded by BMW??

seems like the stock battery can't handle all the built-in gizmos...

I get it all the time especially after I leave my radar detector switched on all night . I also notice quite a high voltage drop in the car after startup. But it realy doesnt bother me
