Bmw battery coding question
If my car is coded for a 90ah battery and i put a 80ah battery will the system overcharge the battery?
Ive been having over voltage issues with the car i swapped the vr, battery alternator, inspected junction box and fuzes and still no fix until i noticed that the car was running as if it had a 90ah battery so i recoded it to 80ah and registered the battery so im hoping that solves my over voltage issues |

Voltage issues aren't going to be related to a 10AH rating deficit in your battery. A 90AH battery doesn't require higher voltage, it would require higher amperage to be fully charged.
It highly likely you have a different issue with something on the BSD bus, or something with the alternator/voltage regulator quality. |

Unplug the BSD bus wire (that small single wire that clips in on the back) and run the car, you will get a code for alternator missing, but that eliminates any noise or instructions from the car going to the alternator or voltage regulator and it goes into a default voltage mode.

I had it unplugged and i noticed the voltage spikes stopped and my votage was consistently at 13.6 city driving and when i plugged it in i started getting the spikes again so i ordered a brand new ibs sensor and the bus cables wheel see if that solves it for good ill keep you posted thanks alot man
