X1 battery registration

[MGB3405]

Hi; need new battery on X1 (non stop start) is there an easy / Cheap way to register it. Halfords appear to do it but when I went in to the shop the ‘expert’ didn’t know what it was?

Do the non stop/start cars even have IBS?

I had a 58 plate 5 series which didn’t have stop start that had the ibs.

I have the low charge warning on the dash so assume yes?

All X1s do.

Yeah, just remembered my E61 had IBS and no stop/start.

Also had an AGM battery as well.



Maybe put your location and see if someone local can help you out?

Do you have a bluetooth/wifi obd2 dongle? If so, or if you want to get one they're pretty cheap, there's an app called bimmer tool which allows you to do the battery registration.
