Programming after battery replacement (Athens, Atlanta, anywhere in between)

topsall · 08-23-2013, 02:48 PM

Hi folks. I just replaced the battery in my 2008 335i and am looking to see if anyone would be willing to program my car for the new battery pro bono?

Athens, GA preferred but I could meet you anywhere from Athens to Atlanta.

Thanks!

was the battery replaced with a battery of the same specs? i might be able to help you

It's 750 CCA, and I think the original was 720 CCA. It's also an AGM. I've heard my car comes with an AGM, but the battery I swapped out was white which I have heard are non-AGM.

Can anyone help? Seems I need to have it reprogrammed AND registered. Driving to Atlanta today.

Ended up going to Markert Motor Works in Lawrenceville, GA for the battery registration and programming. Great price with some extra coding thrown in on the house. Dave and Rob are great guys. Highly recommended if anyone needs this done in the future.

Can I ask what they charged you for this? Curious as I am facing the same issue but have no idea what an independent would charge
