Battery coding for 2008 m3
I have a 2008 m3 with a battery going bad. I purchase a 1 month old interstate MT5-49/H8 battery.
My understanding is that I have to code my car for this replacement battery or else I will have random codes popping up for my car. Does anyone know where I can code my car or can help me out code my car? I am local around Los Angeles/Burbank/Glendale/Pasadena Thanks in advance for any info txt me at 818-913-five3zero4 if you can help a brother out. |

Old thread but I though it's pretty well established that Carly does NOT reset the battery.
Not sure about Bimmercode. .

Take it for what it's worth but last I read it works great on some models (worked great on my E70). Other models like my M3, it works but is unable to write the fact it did register a new battery and at what mileage. So when you go check it won't show a new battery registry. Even though the new battery is registered.
