I just said YES! Get off the Internet and get a Battery. When the car's DC-DC converter is "ON" and charging the 12v battery, a by-product of that is the lamps being on that you noticed. I have the same year car and MY 12v battery died in June 2022. I have a Bluetooth 12v monitor attached to...

YES! Change that Battery ASAP before you get stuck some place. A dying 12v battery will self-discharge rapidly over time and will refuse to hold a charge. Once the voltage reaches 12.0 volts the car comes on to try to keep it alive by boosting it for exactly One Hour. This will repeat over...

So get battery replaced under warranty for free or pay thousands of dollars to send it to the Czech Republic for an upgrade. Decisions, decisions....

That is the lowest number I have seen anyone post publicly. All signs are in your favor but the only way to be certain is to pay to have the Dealer do the test. It is in THEIR favor to fail it because they get paid a very large amount of money to change out that battery pack if necessary...

Well the car was "totaled" by insurance for a reason. That's why it was for sale at Copart. If it was a simple fix, someone might have done it and it would not be for sale at Copart. If there is no crash damage, it could have been submerged in water or who knows.

I rather doubt it as the center console would be in the way and it is a tight fit already

The Blue pulsing light only stays on if you LOCK THE CAR while charging. If the car is unlocked, the Blue light goes out after a bit but it continues to charge. This is clearly spelled out in my owner's manual under "Display of Charging Status" I posted backwards so I am updating. Alohart's...

plugged in if possible but if not it will be fine unless your 12v battery fails for some reason. We don't drive our 2017 very often and there have been times when it has sat in the garage for almost a week with a partial charge, not plugged in and we come back to it and nothing has changed.

I hope you didn't leave Negative feedback for the eBay seller

It is a TORX 30 so the HEX equivalent is 1/4"

that's because you bought a Euro OEM version. Euro and USA spec ports are different.

The 12v battery fails by self-discharging at a faster rate over time and refusing to hold a charge. At some point the DC-DC converter is unable to keep up with the 12v battery's needs and any "charging" will just turn into heat, the 12v voltage drops below some threshold where it is no longer...

2 separate owners who have had their battery packs replaced under warranty have reported that the reading was 19.6kWh after the warranty replacement of an entire pack. The 18.8 number is a "de-rated" number provided by BMW for warranty purposes so the 70% warranty is based on that number, not...

Nothing. Nothing ever happened with it. They made a prototype and were taking Pre-Orders. It never happened.

It is coming on at exactly 12.0 volts in the log you posted.

This is the Amazon Link to that cooler bag. XXL is the size. The size in the listing shows it as being 20"x10"x13"

or you could spend $20 and get a cheap insulated cooler bag like this: (not my car)

The 5Spurs one does not even exist. If you read further down they need a certain number of commitments to produce it. People have been posting that link for at least 3 years now that I recall and no one has one. The Wokeby one is very nice but it is also in Germany so you will pay a good...

The only SH advised in 3 years would be a Brake Fluid flush at 2 years.
