  • How often should I replace my car battery? You can usually get three to five years out of your car battery. However, battery type, how well you maintain your battery, and your driving habits can all affect your battery’s lifespan.
  • Why is there white, flaky stuff around my 550i GT xDrive’s battery post? A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can cause a white, crusty buildup to form on the terminals of your 550i GT xDrive car battery. This buildup — known as corrosion — can impede the flow of electricity and cause a range of issues, from poor performance to premature battery failure.
  •  How do I clean corrosion off my 550i GT xDrive vehicle battery? Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your 550i GT xDrive’s electrical system running smoothly. Before cleaning, reference your owner’s manual for instructions on how to disconnect the battery cables.
