2 weeks ago I had the "Increased Battery Discharge" error on my 2011 X5 5.0. Dealer took it, checked it out and battery is deemed fine. Suggested I lock it even when garaged so that it doesn't stay awake for 15 minutes after turning it off.
Had the error once last week on a cold start after a weekend of sitting in the garage, unlocked. Since this second error, it has been locked every time it was parked, even in the garage. No issues since then.
Although, SA said if the error returns, they will need to recode the vehicle. After the initial error, they researched the issue and deemed it to be a coding issue. My gut says at the next service it will be recoded.
