New Battery?
 
Hi,
Where could I pick up a new battery for my X5? I have been searching online and found nothing. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm in NYC.

Thanks!

Duralast 49-DL at Autozone. I replaced mine a couple of months ago

I also got a Duralast but I've been having problems with it discharging, mostly because I leave the car at the airport lot for days. I'm not sure if it is the battery or my car causing problems.

Hal -

Grab one of those solar charges that lie on your dash and plugs into your cig adapter.

How long of periods is it sitting for ? What airport.....as it's getting colder out here in the Garden State.

I did get one of those solar power chargers but maybe it's too small for the big battery, the one I got is .125mA .
I left it at the airport in Jersey and yes it's been cold.

Here in the UK an original BMW battery from a dealer is cheaper than a decent one from a factors

How old is the car ? Original battery ? The ones at AZ are cheap....if I recall relative to the one I replaced it with. There are Batteries Plus In Hackensack I think.

If you're bordering 4.5 years or so, just spend the $90-$120, 30 minutes of your time and call it a day. Unless.....u have some electrical gremlins going in.

My portable Die Hard batt booster pac didn't do the job for me , how much cold cranking amps do we need to have?

I still have a new factory battery sitting in my garage fully charged.

Long story short, the dealer replaced a new factory battery over the summer under warranty but I already had an optima. There quick to blame aftermarket batteries for electrical glitches, so I swapped the battery when the alternator light came on. Of course it was the alternator and not the battery.

I could deliver it for free, if your not too far for $75. Im in zip 11580.
