I know they used to replace batteries for free under extended warranty but does anybody know if they still do. Depends if I buy from them or not. Car is 03 3 series.

Thanks

The extended warrenty has a £250 excess per claim on M cars so it isn't worth claiming under warrenty, think the non m cars have a £100 excess so again, not worth it.

if its a BMW extended warranty you have to take your beamer in so a batt drain check and a batt drop test can be carried out-from that we can get the required test paper work to claim back from warranty.
If you bought the battery from parts then it only has a 1 year parts warranty

Alternatively, in the future you buy your Bosch battery from Costco and after it dies within the 3 years you take it back, and with no receipt they give you a full refund...........thats Customer Service, or you can carry on with the BMW charade.......
