B5 E61 battery out for winter

Post by Forneby » Tue Oct 15, 2019 9:07 am

hi all
During the winter break I have to remove the battery, do i have to pay attention to anything?
I do not want to recharge the battery and I do not want to replace the battery, I just want to remove the battery now for the winter and put it in the spring.
the car will parked over the winter without battery thats why i will remove the battery.
The car is in winter in a dry but cold garage.
And the insurance is not satisfied when the car is in winter and the battery is installed.
many says it`s a no go
the car is "intelligent" they said, ok.
how the car wants to know if the battery is disconnected 1 day or 4 months ?
i drive for 4 years a E31 850i, and this one is a crazy electronic junkie :-) it can not be worse.
If the car loses a few settings, steering angle, windows and so on, that's not bad, he can also learn that again.
anyone have tips ?
thanks
greets from sweden
