New keys (and the one you have) will be recoded again, leaving the stolen key un-coded!!!
Still, anybody with a key can open the driver door but they won't be able to start the engine - this is why they suggested changing the locks... It's your decision

You could by a driver side key hole cover. Then they won't be able to open the x5 from the driver side door

The dealer (if they know what they're doing) can disable the key electronically to where the EWS (immobilizer) won't let that key work anymore.

But the window is still breakable, and if someone really wants in... they're going to get in.

I'd call the dealer again and talk to the service manager or shop foreman (to make sure it's someone who knows how) and tell them you had keys stolen, and need to have them turned in the EWS to make them inactive. From that point they need the X5 and all remaining keys and about 1/2 hour on the GT1 tester.
