To all, My father-in-law has a 2001 740i automatic that has been through 2 batteries. The last battery was added in 2006. The Local BMW dealer has always installed the batteries, never a small shop or other auto service center. His driving in mainly short trips to local stores and back to his house. Maximum driving is ten to twenty miles a day but not everyday. The local BMW dealer has sold him an adapter to recharge the battery. (It plugs into the house electrical outlet and into the cigarette lighter)
Has anyone else ever had similar problems with a 7 series or other BMW? Thanks in advance,\ S
