Clock and com resetting on its own?!?

[Fentanyl]

Hey guys just seeing if anyone else ran into this problem as well. So I had my car parked for about 8hr while i'm at work when i got back the keyless entry doesn't work along with the trunk button. I had to manually press the trunk button on the remote for it to open. Then the keyless entry worked but when i started my car the clock was reset as well as the mpg and distance meter. Is my car messed?!?!

Either the battery is not charging properly or the alternator is not properly changing the battery...

I had the same issue several months back. I had orginally drove down my street to a friends. I was there maybe a few hours came out and the car woudn't unlock so I had to use the key fob. Just like you said the clock and a few other things had resetted on the iDrive and something about a battery discharge was displayed on the iDrive, but once the clock was set it went away, It did it 3 times that day before I went to the dealer, all they did was unhook the battery and retightend everything up. (Like I didn't think about that the first time it did it).
Total just that day it did it about 5-6 times. 2-3 more times after going to the dealership. All this was on a Saturday. The dealership said if it comes back to make an appointment on that Monday, but the next day it was gone and I have never seen it since and that was back around Sept-Oct time frame.

Hmm... That's interesting. I'll just wait and see if it happens again, but its nice to see I'm not the only one seeing this. Thanks for sharing Blue.
