Thanks for your help man. Dealer said BMW is refusing to replace batteries on cars that are not used 'enough'. Sounds like crap to me; that's why I posted it. But to be honest, the way I take care of my batteries, it'll probably crap out after warranty, so I'd be on my own anyway.

And if battery wasn't replaced before I bought car (wish a dealer could check my VIN to make sure), I'm impressed. My car has all options, and it takes a while for the charger to turn green after just a week idle. I don't think a 1.25A charger can desulfate a battery, but maybe it does. Certainly hope so. Thanks again.
