Where the battery is on a BMW 5 Series
On the BMW 5 Series the battery is in the trunk, under the floor on the right side. Generations: E39 (1997–2003), E60/E61 (2004–2010), F10 (2011–2016), G30 (2017–2023) and G60 (2024 on).
What to know about the BMW 5 Series
- The E60, F10 and G30 5 Series keep the battery in the trunk, under the right-side floor, with jump posts under the hood.
- The E60 was one of the first BMWs with full battery registration. Skipping it on an E60, F10 or G30 is a common reason a new battery dies early.
- Plug-in hybrid versions (530e) have a different 12-volt setup. We check the VIN before we come out.
