Just an FYI it ended up being the MASK unit unfortunately. It actually drained my battery so many times that I had to replace that as well. I took it to a reputable garage that works on imports and they said the e60 is well known to have the MASK or CCC go bad. Unfortunately, it will cost $1987 total for the MASK, battery and labor.

Dude, buy the MASK for a couple hundred bucks, same for the battery, and find someone near who does coding. Chances are simply swapping MASK units with the same build year should suffice and may not even need coding. $2k for a battery and MASK replacement is beyond steep.
