2018 i3s - 12v battery just replaced
It started 1 second beep every 30 seconds.

Car seems to run OK
Any ideas?

My wives benz is auto enabled and can easily cause damage if you forget to turn off in a car wash
I think he meant 'A' country, not 'the' country.
In Canada and USA, we have 120v house service. Most of Europe have 240v house mains so they get a much faster charge even with a 'slow' charger.
Does anyone know if BMW canada intends to install fast chargers at dealer sites?
If they did, this would be enough for me to get the fast charger option.
