2004 BMW 525i BATTERY Register

golumotuchotu · 10-07-2010, 08:59 AM

I have to replace the battery on my 2004 525i. The dealer says that the battery needs to be registered and is asking for $ 400. Another independent shop is asking for $ 290. Is it something I can do myself? I have come across another article saying that "Bavarian Technic Program" will let me do this. Where do I get this? I can change the battery on my own. If someone does the battery reset for a reasonable charge, please let me know. THNX...

Thanks for the information Dustin. For the next time I will keep that in mind. This time I ended up shelling out $ 50 for registering the battery. Regards,
