Hi, so I guess it’s time for me to replace my better. My car has been transferred from a warm climate to a cold one. Ever since then I’ve been having issues with it. The car recently has bene displaying a message saying “battery discharged, start engine” I took it to auto stores to check on my battery. One of them said it’s a bad battery. The other one said it’s the adaptor (I think) but he wasn’t sure. So I did some price shopping and found one company that comes to your location and replaces it for you. He charges $440 out the door cost. He is going to use a AGM Gel Type battery. I have no idea what that means but do you guys think it’s fine? It’s my first time changing the battery since I bought it brand new.
Does the mobile battery installation company do the coding required by your car?
They said they do a “soft factory reset” is that all that is needed?
Adapter? You mean alternator?
Yes, AGM is the type of battery used by BMW’s.
