Battery on 530i BMW, 2002?

Santos Per

I have changed the battery twice on my car, both walmart brand, both batteries have died in less than a week, it's the same size and the one recommended for the car, yet I don't know what's going on.

Someone told me I had to get the battery registered at a BMW dealer, whatever that means......

Please help me out, wife and kids have been stranded twice.

Answer
I had the same problem with my BMW Z3, turned out it was the electric seats draining the battery (switch stuck). Whilst searching for a solution I heard of trunk lights that don't go out-fans that don't go off etc on many BMW models. Have a look around your car and see if anything is out of the ordinary. It is not the battery it will be something in the car that is not operating properly-if you can't find it yourself get it down to a dealer/garage.

Hope this helps!

Answer
You want to get to 215-220 stick a chip and an electric fan "turbo in" that will do it. Keep in mind the heads and head gaskets are weak and short lived with the 2.8 of your generation as with most all "newer" BMW engines. Adding "power" to the engine will shorten its life expectancy considerably.

LOL getting ahead of the game... The guys who are getting ahead of the game are the ones who accept that REAL Bmws and what they stood for (excellent engineering*) are way old. Bacically if the cars body platform starts with a E2? its a REAL BMW if its a E3 and E4 its new bad engineered short lived junk. (few exceptions)

Good engineering is not what it can do but rather how long it lasts.
