What is the best battery for a BMW?
I just bought a used BMW and I’m looking to start fresh with a new battery. What is the best battery for a BMW?

Getting new parts for a used car is always a great idea. The best battery for a
BMW
will always be a stock OEM battery purchased from a BMW dealer. These batteries are made specifically for BMWs and will cause no conflict with coding or programming.These batteries usually run between $400 and $600 so although you may want to change your BMWs battery, you should determine if it is necessary before you purchase one of these.
You can also go for some aftermarket batteries which will ultimately cost less but could cause conflict in the car’s coding. If you’re interested, be sure to do your research before you purchase anything that could put you or your vehicle in danger.
If the difference between you purchasing that new battery and choosing not to is just a couple hundred dollars, check out the
Jerry
app and see how much you can save on your car insurance
premium.Once you download Jerry, just answer a handful of questions that will take you roughly 45 seconds to complete and you’ll immediately get car insurance quotes for coverage similar to your current plan. Jerry customers save an average of $887 a year.
