Hello i need some help please and didnt know where to post
So its a bit of a story a couple of months ago i left my car ( bmw e90 the 163 version ) at my mom's house as i started using a different car for a bit for my job . A weeek ago i go there and realise the all the power had run out of the battery because my mom literally forgot the key in the ignition while the car was just sitting ..so i hook up the cables start giving it power from my other car all good the electronics start while the cables are connected i wait for 10 minutes then i press the start button the solenoid clicks , i hear some clicks from the back as well but nothing the car doesnt start i tried waiting for another half hour with the cables connected still the same and when i take the cables of the car just dies it holds no power . I tried clicking the start button a couple of times maybe get the battery to start but to no avail .. i also unhooked the ibs and tried again still nothing but when i go in the secret menu in the battery voltage metter it hovered around 13v . did this ever happen to you guys ? it should be the battery's fault right ? it was fully discharged then the winter cold came and it just killed it ? Thanks in advance for any answers

If the battery was discharged and then frozen the battery is almost definitely damaged and needs to be replaced. A discharged battery will freeze damaging the internal plates. There is no way to repair that damage. It's time for a new battery.

I'd be concerned the case broke and the acid has leaked into the battery well.

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
