    I have a 2006 E60 which is suffering from a dead battery every morning. The battery is in good shape, the alternator is working, and I tried disconnecting the IBS, which didn't solve the problem either. If I disconnect the battery overnight, it will start the car no problem the following morning. :confused:

    Something is drawing a substantial amount of current. After about 4-5 hours of the car being turned off, the battery will be completely flat (not even enough juice for an interior light). The car appears to be going to sleep as it should (the window lock light switches off after several minutes).

    If anyone knows a good auto electrician around the Galway area, please pass on their details. Or, if anyone has had a similar problem, and can suggest a DIY fix, that would be great too. Thanks.

    If it's the "large" guy across from the Olympic Physique gym I've used him too.
    Good and helpful guy indeed.
