Hi everbody,

I've just purchased my first X5, a 2002 3.0i Sport Auto with 38K miles. Just getting to grips with everything and I have a question regarding the spare key.

My spare is totally dead. It looks brand new, so I assume its hadly been used. I have noticed that it appears that someone has tried to get at a battery in the past. Reading the manual it seems that the key is charged whilst in the ignition.

Does anyone know how many miles etc or how long it takes to charge a key up that is dead?

Thanks
