QUOTE(narf03 @ Nov 23 2017, 07:21 AM) u have no idea how much problems BMW have and u cant go to random workshop, only ppl whos so rich and have somebody taking care of your car will consider owning it. \why not get a new one? ITs 5 years warranty with service. All you need is to pay for the installments.Trouble free. |

QUOTE(narf03 @ Nov 22 2017, 10:12 PM) Why every parts of the car is improving but left out the pretty important 1? Killing a battery a year or 2 make the car brand bad. And why we cannot use other types of battery like those in the phone, I rather pay more for a much lasting solution than those fail me during critical moments. the type of battery use in phone not safe lahvery easy to go boom if accident new city n jazz hybrid battery using that battery type |

QUOTE(Lancewood @ Nov 22 2017, 10:05 PM) 7 years on the first one that came with the car, the second unit bought outside goin strong still after 4 years. But then again a Delco DIN100 isnt exactly cheap. SameFactory supply last 8 years, recently changed to DIN100 Varta Blue. - Rear battery My other car use Panasonic DIN66 price around RM500 last 4++ years. You can get cheaper Century at RM200++ but yeah last only 1 year. - Front battery Mind both car above at stock condition. My peers driving same car with 'ah beng' mentality add boom boom pow aftermarket gadget (speaker, HID, door step with light etc) last half from my battery life span. |

QUOTE(narf03 @ Nov 22 2017, 11:36 PM) the last 3 car batteries i used are maintenance free, daily travel min 30 km except saturday and sunday, always respect the minimum road speed limit. seldom stuck into any jams. yet the battery die fast. not to forget....the total crank you did in a day too.another possibility is the inferior quality of the battery. |

QUOTE(say_xtr @ Nov 23 2017, 09:05 AM) Same 500-800 for a decent Din100 battery still beats the rm2800 they charging at the authorized service centre. Just need someone to reset the charging when you changed your batt. I did mine myself with a Foxwell scanning tool. Good investment.Factory supply last 8 years, recently changed to DIN100 Varta Blue. - Rear battery My other car use Panasonic DIN66 price around RM500 last 4++ years. You can get cheaper Century at RM200++ but yeah last only 1 year. - Front battery Mind both car above at stock condition.
