One thing that helped was in the US at least, the High voltage batteries are warranted for 8 years or 100000 miles.
BMW of North America, LLC (BMW NA) warrants the high-voltage lithium-ion battery assembly against defects in materials or workmanship for a period of 8 years/100,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
And that was a good thing since I needed to get 4 of them replaced.
Just some info.

How did you find out you had to replace part of the battery pack? The battery warranty in the UK may be different to us in the US........
