I know it is a stupid question, but i cannot find the battery in my E60 530D Uk car btw
Have tried searching the forums and cant find an answer.
Put me out of my misery please.

Not totally sure, but I think its in the rear of the car, possibly to help the 50/50 weight distribution.

Open the trunk and remove the panel on the passenger side right behind the taillight. You should find it there. The location pretty universal for all E60, I believe. :)

All E60s have the battery in the same place: they don't change the chassis to change location of the battery on E60s sold in UK :cool:

Translation from American:

Open the BOOT and remove the panel on the DRVERS side right behind the taillight. :)

(Sorry, couldn't resist)

:D , its supposed to be us Irish say those sort of things.

Now just need to get the doors off to find and resolve some rattles that are doing my head in.
Does fitting some soundproofing, dynamat etc, help much?
