E46 won't start - battery? worse?

Recommended Posts

Haven't used my car in 4 days, today tried to start and no go with several attempts. It just makes this funny loud click sound twice and the lights blink on.

Dash lights as usual - red battery and oil and orange engine as it normally is on ignition, but no other warning lights.

Everytime I put the keys in the aircon turns on and is reset to factory defaults which is odd.... is it likely a dead battery or worse...?

I will have to call someone out obviously as i don't know how to test for sh*t lol.

Do the head lights work / full strength?

Has it been outside?

Sounds like it could be battery. Cold weather, left for 4 days, resetting ecu...
