What does "remote battery discharged" mean?
I have both keys in the car, the i-key or whatever its called and the normal key
But the key warning keeps coming up like every 15 seconds on the dash with a chime... The smart key, feature key, show off key, is switched off and is in the charger... is this warning the normal key battery? |

I think that is the CR2032 battery in your key. I had the same thing a couple of weeks ago, and just went onto Amazon and got a pack of 6 Duracell, as all the key fobs for my cars take the same battery.

Mine are lasting about 15 - 16 months each, so quite reasonable given keyless entry.

There is a rechargeable battery in the display key, which can be charged via USB or using the induction charger in the armrest. It is too big to carry around though - mine just sits in its box in a cupboard. With keyless entry and start, the key just stays in your pocket, so no opportunity to charge it like you did with the e39.

I use my display as the first key .It fits in my pocket nicely. I rather enjoy carrying it around . When I'm not driving the car , I just leave it hooked up to the USB
