Why register a BMW battery?
A BMW battery needs to be registered so that the engine control module (known in BMW terms as DME - Digital Motor Electronics) can properly charge the battery.
Skipping the battery registration procedure can cause the new battery to fail prematurely.
BMW battery registration was introduced in 2002 and most BMW models require that you perform battery registration.
If your BMW is older than 2002, you don't need to perform battery registration.
What happens when you register a BMW battery?
