Take it to a dealer. It's obvious you don't know what you are talking about
going by your description. "demi369" > wrote in message lkaboutautos.com... >I foolishly left my engine running on my 528, it could have been over an > hour,when i got to it the engine had cut out and now car won't start. > Anyone got any advice? > thanks Demi > |

Tell your dealer that you drove it into a flood and he'll give you a new

You could find youself in the same situation if you are caught in a bad traffic tie-up. However, most modern charging systems ought to be able to cope even at idle. |
