Excellent video 👍🏽 I’ve just put my E93 330i in the garage for winter and wasn’t sure how to charge it with my battery maintainer or if I was ok to use the connections under the bonnet! This answers everything I particularly like the part to lock the car as I would have left it unlocked what a top tip! Thank you!! 👍🏽

Were you a mechanic before you started youtube or was it all self-taught? Either way good to see you back. I've got an R53 for fun and am getting everything overhauled on it as we speak, then looking to get a 3 series with the N52 engine to use my daily. :)

I thought you crossed the cables on your m5 e 60 after watching that video i crossed them cables on my 2006 e60 and replaced the battery now i have a no crank no start i am working on now and cannot get car into Ignition position 2, any ideas ????

Look for Deltran connectors on trickle chargers. It's easy to find accessories for Deltran connectors. I have a 25ft. extension cable for trickle charging cars in my driveway. I have installed the hard wire charging cable on all my car batteries since covid. With BMWs, except SUVs, it's easy since the battery is in the trunk/boot.

2:10 why can't I charge the battery there? That alternator does.

I wish I never owned a BMW. The worst car I ever had.

Very thorough video. I've only charged my battery using the procedure you show. Works very well. I hadn't heard about locking the car to put everything to sleep while charging. I've fully charged my battery without locking the car in the past. However, I'll try locking it when I next need to recharge and see if that might improve the speed of fully recharging. Also when using these modern chargers to "repair/desulphate" a battery I disconnected the battery from the car and charged it directly as I had read that the repair modes pulse high current into the battery to do the "repair" and these high pulses might damage some modules in the car if done using the terminals under the bonnet. Is this correct? ( I use a 10 amp battery charger).
Thanks

Don't remove the battery for charging, charge it on the car. When replacing the battery always keep 12 volts DC on the under bonnet charge point until the replacement is complete, easy.

Thank you for the info. I Like how you are no nonsense and straight to the point.

Thanks for all the info! Gotta tell you though, ...I think your voice is steady and calm, some might say even soothing... but, it's so monotone and same paced, I start to zone out and think of others things, or it puts me to sleep. Maybe not enough pause between points you are making... maybe some emphasis on certain important points, and maybe don't repeat the same thing too many times. Just some feedback. Keep up the great work!

Can i check my battery on a e91 2008 under the hood with a battery tester instead of going to the trunk and test it directly on the battery?

[mo]

nice one. im just stuck cos ive had this issue for over a year.

If i open and close my car door once ot twice after hours of it being sat still and then return to it later my car will not start unless i charge up the battery. It might turn the engine over a few times but it will drain the battery and wont even give me a 2nd try.

If im away and don't open the car doors for over 2 days, even when it was -3 Degree outside my car started fine.

What could be draining my battery so much when i just open and close the door really quickly when the car is sleeping.
And does this mean i just need to replace a battery or i have an actual critical parasitic leak ?

Hi dean I have a 2014 518d the only problem I have is that when the back or passenger doors are open the remote not in reach comes up on the dash screen this doesn’t happens with the drivers door any idea what this problem is thanks

[wayneduval]

Another spot on video. Great to see you back Dean. 😉

The eyelets get connected permanently on the battery and when using the charger you just need to connect the other end to the two pin connector to the charger.

Besides the BMW software computer INPA is there any other scant tool that registers a battery I know they say they can't I have the Fox well nt 530 it says it can but it can't

[sparkoftruthblazeoffire]

I have a 2007 BMW Z4 3.0si roadster. The car suddently would not heat and the BMW mechanic explained I need a new battery. Due to the registration of the battery (can buy tool to do yourself) but agreed to pay 450 dollars for the new battery plus registration. A few weeks later, the car continued to deplete the battery. I took it back and the charged the battery and it worked okay for about a month. I drive the z4 maybe once or twice a week but for short distances to the grocery store. The battery kept dying on a regular basis and the jump starter I purchased did not effectively start it. I used my Honda Accord to jump start from the front of the car and would then drive the BMW for an hour or more but the battery kept depleting after a few days. I purchased a battery charger and battery restorer (same device) for about 35 dollars. I hooked it up to the front of the engine but it said the battery was good. I took the chance and took the battery out and trickle charged or restored the batter from Fri to Sunday. Since that time, the battery has done well. I have spend days not driving the car and it starts up. I learned that if the battery is registered you don't need to register the battery: and yes, as this video states, you can take the battery out of the car for a 2007 and charge the battery. I had not fault codes when I put the battery back in the car. Of course, put the postive on first and then the negative. So far, car battery is working so much better and not having to jump start it every week. WIsh I had seen your video earlier as I didn't know if you could take the battery out (so yes, thank you as I live on the 3rd floor in Dallas and have no garage to charge it other ways). Taking the battery out and charging it made the car work right again.

Your videos have come a long way. I think it's time though to refresh the outdated gangster intro.
