I've just dropped a new battery into the e39 530 and all i can say is wow!
I can't believe how many electrical gremlins have been solved with a new battery.
There was the problem that i had with the aux fan (at the front of the car, behind the bumper) randomly kicking off when the car was first started (no longer happening).
There was a problem with the near side, side light not working properly, now fixed.
The alarm wanted a piece too with random outbursts.

This is the one i bought, the biggest and most powerful(built) one that i could find, a bonus that there was a 15% discount too!

Now i need to take the car on a long drive to give it a good charge and next month i will be replacing the alternator.
