Battery OEM Nissan or OEM BMW

I just changed my 2018 F36’s battery a few months ago. They really do last a long time.

2016 328i. Original battery still alive and kicking!

The battery on my previous F20 lasted over 12 years before I replaced it last winter. Had enough voltage but bad resistance readings, mechanic advised me to change it for the winter.

I’m just over 10-years on my ‘15 M235i.

I got 12 years out of the original battery on my E90.

My e93 Battery Laster from 08 and I replaced it this year due to it started having Problems. It still kinda worked but I didnt want to have Problems. Still 17-18 years on a battery is bonkers

I had 8 years on original battery on 2017 750i. I replaced it. It was barely holding 12V. Few functions were not working like stop/start and such.

a used 2013-2015 Nissan Leaf. Tennessee winters should be at least somewhat mild so they should be gentler on the battery, and it's best if you can park it somewhere in the shade. They often go for $2k-$3k private sale around me because the battery life is fading and nobody wants a car with 40-60 miles of range after "filing up." Slow charging using a standard 110V outlet is better for the battery and should suffice for your use case as long as you can charge overnight and maybe longer over weekends.

battery left me stranded

Shop Forman and Nissan tech of 15 years, lately we have seen a ton of frontiers come in for battery discharging. Some will be batteries that do test bad, some have been discharging for no reason even after confirming no parasitic drains, some believe the Telematics control unit is staying on/relaying to Nissan servers causing drains. With the variable charging systems controlled by the ECM/IPDM all of it just seems to be a recipe for electrical disaster. Not a fan of any of it
