What is the OEM battery in a BMW?

I’m purchasing a used BMW and the seller of the car told me the battery has had some issues. I’m planning on replacing the battery, but what’s the OEM battery in a BMW?

BMW’s are equipped with either standard, advanced, or performance batteries. Manufacturers recommend that you replace BMW batteries with lead-acid, high-voltage, absorbent glass mat, BMW manufactured batteries.
Original parts in a BMW are specifically manufactured to meet the requirements of the vehicle. With high quality standards and maximum performance and longevity capabilities, BMW parts are engineered with a 2-year warranty. To find a BMW part, you can check any BMW website or retailer near you.
