How long can X5 sit before the battery goes dead?
I work from home in Baltimore but spend the winter in the Florida Keys. I also have a big Yukon that can haul everything and still tow my Boston Whaler. The Cadillac SRX and the Lexus RX350 that preceded the new 2019 X5 G05 would start right up after 3 months without doing anything special. This year because of the Pandemic we wound up spending 5 months in the Keys. When I got home to Baltimore, I was certain that the BMW would not start after sitting for 5 months. To my surprise it fired right up. No codes and all the settings remained the same. Other than the dust that accumulated on the outside, it was ready to go.
I occasionally see a post asking about leaving the car for a month or two. Just want to encourage you to leave it alone and it will be fine.
