Car dies whenever left with the batter switch
turned on, just last week the navigation system
started messing up (not able to use, just keeps
rebooting on the BMW logo screen), and today my

on and the windows wouldnt work and rhe wipers
would not turn off.

Sounds like the alternator is bad and battery is low. Take it to a shop and have the charging system tested.
