740il battery goes dead (archive)

Our new year 2000 740il battery went dead after being left in the garage for 6 days. BMW's roadside service came and started it. They said they get lots of calls on this problem. The dealer confirmed that the car needs to be trickle charged if it's not going to be driver for THREE days!

Can this be true?

Guess we need a new car. Anybody had this problem and gotten their money back? Do all BMW's have this problem? Thoughts?

Please email replies. Thanks,
--jim
