Original BMW Batteries are designed and tested to deliver a longer service life than conventional batteries. However, batteries may fail prematurely due to a number of factors that can be prevented with regular maintenance. We recommend having your BMW model's battery checked at least twice per year and replaced about every three years.Limit Short Drives

A quick drive prevents your battery from recharging fully. If you only drive short distances, there's a higher chance of your battery dying on you.

If your vehicle has automatic lights, you should be in good shape. If it doesn’t or if you don’t use them, making it a habit to turn off every light before exiting your vehicle is one of the easiest ways to extend your battery life.

Hot weather can speed up corrosion at the battery terminals and adjoining components. Battery terminals need to be kept clean of all debris and deposits. Simply opening the hood and doing a quick visual inspection of the battery terminals will help you identify issues before they arise.

High temperatures are detrimental to your battery’s efficiency and overall life. Whenever possible, choose to park in a covered area like a parking deck or shaded spot. This can help prevent increased wear on your vehicle battery. Avoid leaving your vehicle in direct sunlight for long periods. By seeking out cooler surroundings, you can help increase battery life.

Getting regular service check-ups and performing maintenance at the suggested intervals is still the number one best decision you can make for the longevity of your BMW and Original BMW Parts.
