Took my 2013 650 to the dealer for the chain recall at 5600 miles and noticed that the battery was not holding a charge. Yep the dealer did the necessary recalls and 6000mile service. He said that the battery was out of warranty since 4/9/2015. Grrrr. BMW is supposed to check a warranty claim. The dealer asked what float charger I used which was a Sears 2 amp battery tender through the lighter socket. He said that BMW wants to know before they will cover the warranty. I hope I don't get crap about the CanBus issue.
My front Metzler is also shot with cupping and uneven wear so it will be replaced. The rear is still relatively good. 5600 miles seems low for replacement but I saw the wear and will replace the tire and the battery. My life versus $210 installed = no decision.
