Some good news - the battery drain seems to have subsided. The bad news is I'm not entirely sure what fixed it. I had Alex w/ Alpine perform some coding after I installed the replacement EDC module. He reset the CAS, VIN matched the EDC module, and registered the new battery. It now seems that the car only remains 'awake' when hooked up to the battery tender. I have left it off the tender for a couple of weeks now and it does eventually go and stay asleep. The battery has maintained its charge with no increased discharge warnings. For now I'm just happy to have a fix! Saves me the trouble of going through every module and troubleshooting one by one.

Celebrated by signing up for a nice Saturday morning drive with Florida Suncoast BMW CCA. My buddy tagged along with his new F90 M5 - thing is an absolute monster. He recently installed Eventuri intakes and the sound they make is nuts. Fun drive through the Dade City back roads ending at a brewery in Wesley Chapel. The car was so good. Perfect mix of engine, cornering, and good braking with the new kit. It really feels so dialed right now. Great to be back out enjoying the hell out of this platform. Crossed over the 54k mile threshold on the way back from the drive.





I've always got to stop and take some shots when the sun hits the Space Grey just right.
