Where we work on BMWs in St. Petersburg
Garage and street parking is the norm in much of St. Petersburg, around Old Northeast and Snell Isle driveways, Tyrone Square lots, and I-275 and Gandy commutes. A BMW with the battery in the trunk needs the trunk or hatch open and the floor panel up, so a nose-in spot with the back of the car against a wall is fine; a tail-in spot against a wall is not. Let us know when you call.
Besides St. Petersburg itself, the same Pinellas County route takes in Pinellas Park, St. Pete Beach & Gulf Beaches and Seminole.
What makes a BMW battery job different
BMW's power management charges the battery based on what it thinks is installed. On most cars from the mid-2000s on, that means an AGM battery of a set capacity, recorded in the car. Fit a different type or skip registration and the car charges it wrong.
That is why the job has two parts: the right battery, and registration (telling the car a new battery is in). If the capacity or type changes, for example 80 Ah to 90 Ah or flooded to AGM, the car also needs to be coded for the new battery.

The car keeps charging it like the old, worn battery. That can shorten the new battery's life, and you may see start-stop stop working or battery warnings later.
