Problems with weak start and flickering lights in the BMW 7 Series (2017, diesel)

Hi, I have experienced a similar problem with my 2015 BMW 6 Series. I have some experience with cars, but I'm not an expert. I experienced the same fault and had it fixed at my local garage. It turned out that my battery was not being charged. The whole thing cost me about 290 euros. Maybe it's the same problem with your car. Can you please give me more details about your car and your problem? That would help me to help you better. And try to get it sorted as soon as possible before it gets worse. Good luck, buddy!

Hey, thanks for your quick reply! My 7 has 54000 km on it now and the last service was only recently. The lights also flicker while driving, not just when starting. That's a bit annoying. Glad to hear it was just the battery that was the problem for you - I hope it's similar for me and not something more serious. I will probably, as you say, visit a garage as soon as possible. Thanks again for your advice!

Hey, no problem, that's the nice thing about a forum like this, that we can help each other. With 54000 km on the odometer and a recent service, I'd also suspect the battery. The lights flickering while driving could be a sign of an improperly charged battery. But as I said, I'm no expert, just speaking from my experience. In any case, it's better to get this sorted soon - battery problems, if ignored, are often the start of bigger problems. So don't delay and get an appointment at the garage. I wish you the best of luck and hope that the problem can be solved quickly!

Thank you, much appreciated! You're right, I need to take this problem seriously and sort it out as soon as possible. I will definitely take the car in for an inspection tomorrow and report back what the mechanic thinks. I hope it's nothing major and can be fixed quickly and cheaply. Thanks again for your time and helpful advice!
