BMW 328i Batteries

Your BMW 328i relies on the factory battery for a lot. Its primary purpose, of course, is to help start your car. Without it, there's no ignition, since there's no electricity delivered to the starter. The battery also offers a short-term source of electricity for electrical components like the windows, lights, stereo, and wipers when the engine's turned off and the alternator isn't producing electricity. Over time, even the highest quality battery will begin to lose its spark and go bad. Extreme weather conditions can hasten the process, but most automotive batteries fail with age.

How to Spot a Bad Battery

Here are some indications that your battery needs to be replaced:

• The engine is slow to start
• Your car lights begin to dim
• Your "Check Engine" light comes on
• Your battery connectors are corroded
• You notice a bad smell
• The battery case is misshaped

Don't take chances with a fading battery, since you could wind up getting stranded when your car won't start. By choosing a genuine BMW battery straight from the factory, you're guaranteed compatibility with your BMW 328i.
