I got this display upon first start up after sitting for 5 months. The car started normally, no slow crank, drove the car for 20 minutes and the display has not returned so far. The car was garaged and on a high end float charger so no way the battery should have been low. I've been doing this every winter for 12 years on an A4, then an E60 with NO problem but this F10 seems to be freaked out. After reading all these posts on the subject I'm beginning to believe the nanny ECU is annoyed that it sat for a long time without being driven (a timer) assuming that's bad for the battery even tho there is no real problem. I'm 68 have driven a LOT of cars and never did I ever dream that a car would be so fussy about the battery or have a nanny that tells you you're not driving the car properly. So we have to drive by their rules? That's just stupid.
