It's not the battery. It's something electrical.
These cars are computers on wheels. If one tiny thing goes wrong with the computer, the car is toast.
To say I'm frustrated is the understatement of the year. I'll have to have it towed to the dealer Monday morning. This is my first BMW. How the hell are we supposed to trust these cars?

sounds like a battery problem should be easy to fix, same thing happend to my sisters merc e class they just replaced it and it had another electical failure. they then added another fresh battery and it was fine
