- Does your E90 have IBS? Do you need to register/code a new battery?
As I explained in the video, I was 100% sure I needed to register my new battery on my BMW E90 form 2006. My battery died on me after 14 years of use. It looks like I don't need to code it because earlier models do not have IBS ( Intelligent Battery System). How to determine if your care has it? Take a look at my video. The exact explanation starts at 4:40.

Now I know that my car is ok without ibs . Thank you . It s weird that I still have an Ibs fault code even it was build without it.
Thanks mate
just replaced my battery, also an e90 from 2006. The battery expired in 2008 but worked all up until a few weeks ago. incredible. Thank you so much for this information. I drove to two mechanics today to get it coded and they were asking for a 100 dollars so i was gonna buy a tool and do it myself but now it appears i dont have to.
;)
Hi i have the same now, i replace the battery in some garage but they didnt recode. And after how long it just disappear? Shut i go to service yo recode?
Thank you for this essential input. In addition to this I add, as I found out today, BMW gives NO warranty on their batteries installed in certified dealership in Canada for about $ 500.
Very helpful and useful video. Just what I was looking for. Most talk about changing battery, coding and registration but won’t say what you said, “if you don’t have IBS you don’t need to code and here’s how to know if have or not have IBS.” how long did that take. Great research and keep up the good work!
Thank you! I read so much about having to re code new battery and then found your video and saw mine was the same!
Glad it helped!
well done mate, first of its kind I have seen so far
Dude! Your a star!
My E91 is 2006 too and after replacing battery is still charging @14.4/8 volts! So that’s not too high but yes mine just has the standard negative terminal! Safe bro!
Hello
My BMW E90 also the same battery type,
I was worried that i have to buy OBD2 Diagnostic scanner .
I could prevented use waste money by your good & useful & educational video.
Thank you so much .
You are welcome!
Thank you very much, this exactly what I was looking for 👍🏿
Exactly what i needed, thank you so much.
Wellcome!
Saved me figuring out how to code it thanks!
Thx, I just came to the same conclusion > before < watching this video.. better luck to me next time :)
Yes,it helped a lot.Will be buying a battery soon and I'm so glad I don't have to code it. Thanks
Glad it helped
Money Saver. Thanks brother, BMW Services wanted to charge me $500ish to install a new battery as it needs to be coded. I do not believe my vehicle as the cord connected to the blue dot on the negative side. Thanks!
Thanks for the information you have shared here Adrian!
My pleasure!
I mean I have bmw e87 2005, along newer bmw. All services which was pro BMW doing only BMWs said to me that ones before not coded my battery and each time I've paid another 20€ to code it properly, but it was always showing last battery replacement 0km.. so I figured out I have no IBS in my car fitted even services was telling me that sensor on a battery going faulty and need to be replaced .. as far as I know e87 and e90 not had IBS if there was not iDrive or start stop
Actual video that made sense thank you man very helpful
Glad it helped!
@@benassy69 on my way to fix my issue myself now without a mechanic because of you 🙏🙏 they were trying charge me so much money. You definitely saved me
That was the reason I have also researched the topic myself. When I saw there is no video about it I decided to share the knowledge.
Thanks for the info very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Mate, my is a 2006 e90 and i have a standard - conector ty
mine was the same 2007 Thanks
Hello Adrian, are you still available on this channel?
I have a E92 with IBS and when I try to recode the battery it won't let me. So I think I have a conclusion. My car was imported and whas changed from RHD to LHD and I think that they possibly missed the B+ cable, and I am pretty sure that the B+ cable is the red cable in the middle of the 3 red cables on your positive battery terminal. Also, I am pretty sure that this cable is just connected to ground on the car, for some reason but it could also be connected to something and I don't know about this since I don't have any reference. BUT, my E92 does not have this cable. So I'm wondering if that could be the issue why I'm not able to recode my battery.
Could you possibly locate this middle red cable and see where it's going on your car so that I can use it as a reference? Maybe it's and hopefully it's just for me to order one of these cables to be able to recode my battery.
Thanks for this.... I have same battery problems went to change and came up against a wall when I read they need coding. Well mine does not and I didn't know until now.
Thanks.
My drop top 2008 328i put a new battery in but drop top won’t come down what to do?
Are You sure it is due to a faulty battery? Best advice is to put it on a ODB tester and see what it says.
My 07 328xi (157XXXmi) just got its very first battery and sparkplug change. The battery really needed to be replaced but the plugs were fine. My car idled and ran smooth plus 28mpg..
Thanks for the info Adrian. I cannot figure out why I have fault codes for IBS faults when my car is like yours and it dosn't have an IBS? in the neg battery cable
I'm having the same issue...no ibs but getting ibs codes, you ever figured it out?
Thanx!
Great video!! Thanks for sharing. Many will save money and headaches. Do you recommend any alternative battery brand/model to the original BMW? Thank you.
Yes. I recommend the brands that are actually producing the original ones. Exide, Varta and Bosch.
Hey how you doing so I've been watching videos good stuff I have a 2009 hardtop convertible BMW 328i E90 crank but no start like yours did went to The Battery area I do have the IVs and I'm trying to I guess bypass some things but my battery is good I just got last year so I don't think I need to record it so what do I need to do to make my car start with the same battery no new battery
IPS not the IV IBS I meant
My E92 doesn’t have IBS. Battery died Recently the Old owner fitted a smaller battery than what the car is meant to have, I’ve fitted a brand new bigger battery the correct one.. do I still not have to code or reset it in? Thanks
No need to code it if you don't have IBS.
Bonjour
J’ai changé la batterie est la voiture ne démarre pas ? Il s’agit de quel problème
Merci d’avance
i have a E60 520D LCI and if i drive with the day-running lights on, the car after a week or so will start suddenly give me all types of faults and eventually come to a halt. Change the battery and all is ok. Is it the IBS??
Hi. It is unclear from you comment if after changing the battery you still have thsi problem If yes I doubt it is from the IBS. IBS is a sensor that measures Voltage, temperature and charge/discharge cyles. I sugest to do ODB diagnostic.
even my e90 has IBS after i replaced a 95 ah battery i didt register. so fa so good . do i need to register it ?
If You have IBS than yes. Otherwise your new battery will not last you as long. This is because the car does not know you have a new battery and it will feed it a higher voltage.
I have e91 177hp n47 engine one. Last year i drive very short distances to/from work..around 7km one way. Noticed in last month that my clock on dash keep reseting with every start.. also orange vehicle check light pop out. Looks like my battery is on its way and thinking to buy one with higher Ah..something like 95 or 100.. as I retrofited heated seats. Just not sure if i can install battery with higher capacity.
If the battery fits in the compartment than it is ok. But even though you retrofitted heated seats there is no need for a bigger battery. A bigger battery will charge fully even slower. Take a quality brand 85Ah and you will be fine.
@@benassy69 will agm one make sense as i dont have start/stop? Or should i stick with regular one?
Mine is a 2006 2 liter M47 and I had the original bat. It was not an agm and lasted 14 years. I opted for a Excite 85Ah battery and it is going strong. So Agm does not make sense imo.
@@benassy69 ok..will go and grab some tomorrow 👍
What happens if you don’t recode the battery? Will it damage the battery or car I’ve heard some people do some don’t?
If you have the IBS sensor on the negative lead than you have to register it. If you dont do it than the ECU will consider you still have the old used battery and it will feed more curent to it. This will result in a premature death of the new battery. Hope I answered your question.
Benea Adrian How do I code it? Do you know how much it costs?
Must be done with a Carly for BMW adapter or by a service. Cost depends on the service.
Or you can use a coding app that is called protool, it is a coding app as well as a diagnostic scanner. BMW dealer asks $150 USD to code it, yet it depends on the dealer. Must Dealers won't code a battery that wasn't sold by them, which in turn it will increase the cost. You can code it yourself, it's easy. Check out either Carly or Protool. Both are good. Protool is not vin locked, I'm not sure about Carly though.
Good video. 👍
Wich gps/radio system is this please?
It is a Samsung custom tablet with a diy tablet mount. I have several videos on my channel on how I did it.
Do i need to use AGM battery if i dont have IBS ?
Always use an AGM battery with bmw
@@fischerfenner6577 Why? A lot of e90's came with non-AGM batteries from factory.
They are just the best batteries. I had a non AGM battery in a 2007 328xi that had ELV (electric steering lock) and the battery messed up my IBS and locked up my ELV and I couldn’t start the car, I had to get it towed to a shop that had a snap on diagnostics tablet so they could reprogram my ELV. And the battery ruined my IBS. So I had to get a new battery and when they went to program it into the car they couldn’t because the non agm battery fried my IBS and that’s when I drove it home after they unlocked my ELV and I installed a new IBS and then I was able to program my battery to The car. So I would always get an AGM battery with bmw , really just a personal preference because of the trouble I went through with not having one.
Hi, i have a 2007 330i. Everything was working perfectly but few days back my battery suddenly gave up. The car doesn't start or crank, just a click sound when the push the start. All the interior lights, radios, locking are still working. Is my battery really dead or it might be a different issue? Car came without a IBS. How can i really confirm if its the battery.
Hi. The battery needs to feed up to 80 Ah of power at startup. This is a huge amount of power in order to crank the motor. The interior lights and radio need way less power to operate...thats why they work. Your battery is for sure discharged. The simples way to be sure is to charge the batter for an hour and test it again. After that buy a new battery and that's it! Your description clearly describes a faulty battery
@@benassy69 Thanks a lot for the info. Really appreciate it. I wasn't sure because in another youtube video, it was shown that if through the transparent hole on the battery a green ring is visible, the battery is not bad yet.
Check in the fuse box as well as this could also be a possible issue. There's a big square black fuse (not sure what it's called) you need to remove and put back again.
Hi I have bought two batteries now and both of them have died within 4 days max! everything on my bmw f21 turned off. the car didn't start and everything was also off aswell like lights and radio etc. what could be the problem. is it maybe because I didn't register new battery?
Hi. It does not have anything to do with the registration. You have a massive consumer in your car.Could be a short to the ground somewhere. The troubleshooting procedure is to connect an Amphermeter in series with the battery and remove fuses one by one from the fuse box until the Amp consumtion drops. Than you know which is the cause by identifying the right fuse.
@@benassy69 Thankyou very much! have a nice rest of your day!
How do I enter a new code in my BMW e90 if I don't have the IBS sensor?
SINCE I HAVE TO CHANGE THE BATTERY
Merci romane . Mi.a murit si mie bateria si vreau sa o schimb singur .
Super...spor! ;)
BMW
i got e91 2006 all same so i fink i don't need register new battery :)
Salut . BMW X5 2009 ,baterie AGM , trebuie codata ? Mersi
Salut. Eu zic că da. In 2009 IBS era implementat la toate modelele.
@@benassy69 ok mersi , faza ca cu ce as putea reseta ? Ceva cât m ai ieftin dacă este și știi cu ce as putea
Ori mergi la un service care are diagnoza și îți poate face reset. Sau recomandarea mea este să își iei adaptorul ODB de la Carly și aplicația. Cu avesta poți activa inclusiv funcții pe care mașina ta nu le are din fabrica. Caută pe net Carly for BMW.
@@benassy69 mersi mult !
Please don't try this! I just tried my BMW e92 325i model 2007 now and burned my new battery in less than 30 minutes. It has a single cable at negative side as well.
How did you burned out a new battery? My friend you have another problem with your car.
Get your alternator tested. Might be the real issue. I had this same happen to me where the battkept dying and the car would act out, then one day it started to boil I swapped rhe alternator, no longer and issue. I have an 2007 (e90) 328xi
