I have a 2009 S Clubman S and would like to replace the battery. I see my local walmart has a great battery with a 5 year warranty and my credit card doubles that warranty. My question is if I let them swap out my battery will I mess up my computer memory in my mini and loose any of my present codes?
I have no code issues and don't want to create any.
Your reply and comments would be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks bullstone

 

Others should chime in but the biggest thing is that they disconnect the negative post first. Should not have any major issues. A good mechanic will disconnect the battery when doing anything that involves the electrical portion of the car.

 

I didn't run into any memory issues on my 13 MCS and did use the Carly app to register the new battery. Does the Clubman require battery registration as well?

 

S-2013- Good question on my having the need of battery registration I don't know ,hope some other 2009 s owners will inform me.

Thanks

 

On my MINI a battery disconnect (as long as 3 hours) only requires me to re-set the clock. The trip odometer also resets to zero.
