A healthy dose of cynicism seems obligatory when it comes to this stuff. But on that note, and my comment about nominal battery life, if the typical battery lasts long enough to exceed the 4 year/50k...

Exactly. From what I've read elsewhere it sounds like charging and usage profiles are tied into a complex hysteresis that starts with the car knowing when the battery is fresh. This plays a role in...

It is very sensitive. But in normal, intended use, it's critical that the brakes release as soon as possible. This is so that people behind you don't think you're asleep at the wheel due to your...

AFAIK Auto Hold wasn't available on the 2007 E70. If I recall correctly, it became available in 2008. If equipped, the "Auto H" button would be just behind the parking brake switch. It must be...

E70 Repair Manual Availability
