Losing Battery Charge
 

I have no idea what is going on with my X5. I make sure nothing is left on and I sometimes I have no charge on the battery. I replaced the battery 2 months ago and had the alternator checked.... all good. What could possibly draining my battery. PLease help!

do you have any aftermarket electronics?

no i don't. everything is oem.

You may want to check the new battery. It may have a bad cell. Have the place you bought it from test it.

Hey man I had the same problem. What I did was sit in my car after I turned the car off. After about 2 min the ac fan turned on then turned off, and it kept doing it over and over. This killed my battery. Whats was wrong with my car was the "Final Stage Resistor". I replaced that, and put a new battery(covered under battery warranty) and everything worked perfect. It was a very easy job and the part is about $60.

heres a link to some info http://www.xoutpost.com/articles/x5/...placement.html
