BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
hello,

im new here and i am not sure if this is the right place to ask question.

i have 2016 320i the battery is only 6month old.
today morning i got "battery charging malfunction" warning on my dashboard on and off few times and gone. should i be worried? or should i ignore until it's solid warning along with info-center showing the warning as well?

does anyone know how much does alternator cost in southern cali?

I'd have the car checked out, and don't discount the battery based on its age. The messages are pointing to where there is a problem. Until you pull all the fault codes and test the system, you won't know what the real problem is. Bad power can manifest all sorts of related faults.

As a point of reference, I had a 4 month old battery fail hard (<3V). Wouldn't even power the overhead light.
