You can give it a shot, doesn't cost you anything.
Battery replacement varies from dealer to dealer but usually it is around $400
But you can DIY

Did you post the correct thread for the DIY? The link in this thread the person took their x5 somewhere to have the battery replaced.


Is there anything required other than removing the old battery & putting in the new? Ie I’m hoping there is not anything the dealer has to do to tell the car the battery has been swapped out. I seem to recall the e90 folks required an extra step other than just replacing the battery. I had my f30 for 5+ years but never had to do anything with the battery.
