We made the jump, and got a 2009 X5 xDrive35D. We couldn't be happier! However, this afternoon, I discovered my SUV's yellow lights being ON. I re-locked my SUV, and the lights turned OFF. However, when I went to check up on the dashboard later, I got a message about the battery having low charged. Driving for a few minutes made the message go away.
I would like to ask for your advice on whether I should bring this to a BMW dealership. As you can guess, I shirk at the idea of shelling out $500+ a pop. How much would a battery replacement at a dealership actually cost? I would appreciate hearing from those in Canada.
Also, for those in Canada, are you aware of any recalls involving 2009 X5 xDrive35D? I called BMW Canada, and they said there's none; I know US has one involving diesel smell on cold starts.
Thanks in advance!
