    Engine Power Failure

    Since a few month ago, my E84 is starting weak but the battery was measuring good.
    Last Saturday I started the car and it shut off immediately. After trying to start second time, car was cracking but not starting and the "Check Engine" light came on and displayed "Engine Power Failure".

    Today I used BimmerLink to check the codes and I found 9 errors where by 2 are non power related (washer and folder) and the other 7 errors were as shown below. My battery is still the original (6 years old) and the stT of charge is 73%. Can the battery cause the 7 issues...? Do I need to replace the battery...?

    Battery at 6 years old (and original)...change the battery.
    Car most likely needs ground straps. But not in that order get the ground straps replaced first. You can buy both at any neighborhood auto parts store.
    Cheers!
