Getting a BMW recoded for a new battery

[NDT]

Any recommendations for an independent or mobile person who can reset my 2014 BMW after fitting a new battery?
thanks in advance!

D M Worx in Stoke Mandeville should be able to help.

Where in Herts are you?

The bimmerlink app will do it…

thanks all - in the end I used Halfords mobile as they were by far the cheapest for a new battery.
The technician used an OBD codesaver device, which he swore blind would register the new battery.
I was highly sceptical, so checked with a couple of other technicians and they insist that the car knows it's had a new battery.
The codesaver certainly doesn't register the battery, so I assume the BMW works it out for itself...

The battery will work without registration, but if the car has IBS then it will still think the battery has limited capacity unless you register it.
