Lastly, they may not even have any available for the aftermarket, as it were, because they need them for new car production.

But please do let us know what you find out. I’m curious.
Ok. So BMW testing confirmed my batteries were below minimum rated conditions. And I am pleased to report they were exchanged at no cost for me. Back to 23 Km 100 % charged.
