Pinecone,
When I got my E30 M3 new in 1988, after about a month the battery was dead a door nail. I got it started, but took it to the dealer and they replaced the battery. Sometimes, if the electrolyte is placed into the battery too quickly and the plates get too hot, the battery will short out and go dead. I think you just saw how weird all the computing becomes when the voltage is out of range. I think you'll be fine with a new battery.:thumbup:
