[QUOTE="IDSkoT, post: 5717435, member: 584344"] [IMG]http://scienceblogs.com/insolence/facepalm.jpg[/IMG] I just thought I should add, if BMW is only putting big enough alternators to run the car and the radio (which would be about 20-30 amperes, at most.), they are severely ripping off their customers. If you try to claim sensors... why would they put sensors to detect if the alternator is producing more than ambient power? That makes the cars untouchable in terms of upgrading. Even a simple ignition upgrade would throw codes... again, making the car impossible for the after market. You being a BMW tech should be able to change those codes, or at least know of an ECU that allows for modifications. [/QUOTE]
