Starter battery is limited
I use the app to remote start my car to get the air going, and a warning popped up that said starter battery is limited.
What exactly does that mean and what does it entail to make it go away? Thanks! |

I believe it’s like Ford where it Shuts off the Remote Start and stuff to Preserve Battery Life. Try to have the vehicle Idling for 10 to 15 Minutes or Longer to let the car Charge and see if goes away.

Since you have an “e” I would look into the battery warning. I can’t tell if it is your smaller 12 volt battery or if the warning is about your larger high power battery. One or the other is registering low voltage (power conditions). You don’t give any indication of your vehicle’s “age”…but if you often use power consumers or the vehicle sits for long periods of time or you drive short distances…the smaller 12 volt battery may be getting near the end of its life or may need to be hooked up to a battery maintainer/tender/charger.

I'm beginning to wonder if there's a glitch in the app. It hasn't been updating the fuel consumption. It still shows that even though I filled up Monday and I'm down to almost a half a tank it still shows it as full. I bought the car used from our BMW dealer and I know for a fact that they changed the oil along with the cabin air filters and the brake pads right before we bought it. So I don't need an oil change. I have an appointment on Tuesday morning for them to look at it and also to find out why it will download but not install the latest software update |

I typed out my last response before I read your response. That's what I was figuring that it was a glitch in the app |
