Need to know more about my particular year

I know there is an official e90 330i thread but it doesn't really address any information about the battery specs so just decide to ask here.

Must I buy a specific battery for my car? Do I have to reprogram it once I get a new one?

Yes you need to register it which can be done with an OBD-USB cable and BMWLogger

There seems to be a lot of conversation whether to register your battery or not. Me personally, I bought oem and registered. Also, I believe I read somewhere in the forums that the battery may be "specific" depending on options, but not sure. There are a lot of threads concerning registering your battery, just try a search.
