Can a battery be coded using INPA or something similar ? I'm reluctant to shell out for yet more coding software.....

I believe you can see the reg date and how many miles are listed on the current battery when you go into the battery module within Carly. A 2011 is likely on the original battery still. General opinion on this is; if it ain't broke don't fuck with it. If you're not having any issues, don't start messing with the settings.

Bought a Duralast battery at Autozone. H8-AGM. 900 CCA, 95 AH. It was $199 but got $20 off "managers discount" (ask & ur shall receive). It's bigger than the H6-BMW flooded acid battery it replaced (which was 640 & 80 AH). It fit and filled the entire space. Followed the directions, installed it easy. Coded using Carly, connect, read battery info, choices are 80, 90 or 105... hmmm.... Carly says choose the next below the AH rating. Select 90, Register & done. I didn't bother waiting until the car went to sleep. It worked & nothing terrible happened so that's good. The only strange thing is that Carly didn't charge me anything to Register the battery. I'm one of the legacy purchasers who got in on the one-time charge for the app vs. now with the annual fee. But I thought registering the battery was still an added charge but it let me do it without a fee so I guess that's good. Hopefully that stops my S-L-O-W crank issue. We'll see tomorrow. Thanks Matticus91 great DIY write up.

That slow crank can be the starter too. BTDT. I was an early Carly purchaser too. Good stuff and they did right by making us lifers!!!

I noticed the slow crank starting a while back. I checked the battery in Jan and the voltage was a bit low. I've been charging it every now and then but figured it was time to change it out. The new one in, now it starts like it used to —> push button = vroom! The battery was from 2015. I was hoping to get a bit more than 4 years life out of it. It was the standard BMW H6 640/80AH which isn't that big a battery and in the heat here batteries don't last as long in general. 4-6 years is typical from what I understand. And yes Carly did right to grandfather in the legacy purchasers.

I programmed my Duralast Gold H8-DLG battery recently. It's 80 Ah (had to email support for the capacity). It's made by Johnson Controls a 3 year total replacement + 2 year prorated warranty. The H8 fits the largest stock mounting point. It's a bit of a bitch to get the bracket installed.
Just dropping this here for anyone else looking for that info as it's not online or on the battery. Quote:

Agreed on the sizing, H6, H7 and H8 all fit, there is a spot for the bracket regardless of which of those you go with. H8 is the largest and will just barely fit. You will have to be creative and maybe want to have a magnet handy to be able to maneuver things in place.
I ended up going with an H7 because I added an amp to the car for a sub and the H8 would need to be in the same spot I already had a fuse holder. But any of those will fit. |
