    Rich, long time E60 M5 owner here:
    If you decide to keep the car for a while:
    - change the injectors
    - the buzzing sound you here is the SMG hydraulic pump priming. Don't worry
    - on the front of the engine there are two ionic current modules. These can cause misfires and no-start issues.
    - check the fuel pump, fuel breather valves (under the intake plenum) and the charcoal cannister. Check all fuses.
    Good luck!

    Rich: If you replace the battery with a new one, you'll also need to reset the computer as the alternator varies the charge based on battery age. If you install a new battery without resetting the computer, it will continue to think that you have an old battery and will continue to send a higher and excessive charge to compensate for age, prematurely destroying the battery. This is a well known BMW issue in newer models. As for the moisture issue, I know of a great way to get rid of that, it includes a giant box and a crapton of rice...

    Rich, use a spray bottle filled with a sodium carbonate solution on the mold. It's $30/gal at the hardware store but you can mix your own by purchasing a box of A&H Washing Soda at the grocery store. About 1/4 cup per gal with 1 or 2 drops of dish washing soap. Spray it on and it will kill and help immobilize the fungi. After it dries, it leaves a fine white layer which prevents spores from taking hold on the surface. A damp rag will remove the residue. I'd spray every surface at least twice and then put a room dehumidifier and an ozone generator in the car and let it run for days.

    I had the same issue with my e60 530d that wouldn't start after flattening the battery. Turns out the immobiliser can forget the key code if the battery is drained on these with no obvious signs other then turning over but not starting. Before spending countless hours replacing stuff i highly recommend looking into re syncing your key first(can simply be done with a usb obd cable and software called INPA ).

      Yeah those are NOTORIOUS for leaking in just about all BMWs I've dealt with (was a stealership tech for 8yrs). Have to make sure you don't rip them and then when going back together, replace any bad/missing butyl tape and make sure they're sealed properly. Also, sunroof drains clog up quite often (like this one), and it runs down the inside of the pillars and onto the floor.

    I've owned a E60 M5 for about 7 years now, injectors are on world wide back order. They are a Bosch item so you might be able to find some Bosch ones in stock somewhere.
    Apart from Rod Bearings, the throttle actuators need to be rebuilt, but you can wait until they die before doing anything. Vanos is generally OK, don't really need to do anything unless you have an issue. And you already know about the SMG pump, again, doesn't need attention unless you have issues.
    That noise you hear when you connect the battery is the fuel pump priming, btw.

    While you've got the back taken apart, you should inspect the wire bundle that runs into the trunk lid, mine started breaking where it enters the tube, which caused intermittent problems with the license plate lamps and "trunk open" warnings which could probably result in the alarm going off too. I spliced in some fresh wires and it's all good. They still sell a replacement harness.

    I have a 2016 x5 and the sunroof front drains clogged and flood front passenger seat. Used weed eat line to push through the clog and blew it out with air. Passenger airbag also came on because of moisture in the passenger seat. Took a water vacuum to suck out what I could then ran a heater on and off for two days. Finally got it dry enough to put it back together and then used seat warmer to evaporate the rest. It’s a painful process. Good luck.

    Check the drains right under the front cabin filters. They block and water fills up there like a tank and overflows into the front foot wells. The worst of it is the active steering ECU is located in the foot well and almost certainly it fries. I had to go through 2 before I extended the harness and relocated it under the dash.

    I've got a 2006 with 186.5k on it. That periodic whine when you first turn the car on is the gearbox hydraulic pump motor. It spins up to prime a pressurized reservoir which runs the clutch and shift actuators. It will occasionally kick on while the ignition is on (even if the engine is off). It sounds healthy.
    The good news is that it's all self-contained on the outside of the gearbox. Even the cooling, which makes the gearbox fairly easy to remove. All you have to do is unplug the harness.

    Honestly, I'd do an episode where you go through all the grounds (burnishing, etc.) Zone by Zone (trunk i.e. battery)(cabin: SMS, engine interlocks, door ajar, fuel pump), and (under hood i.e. engine ground, alternator, fuse blocks, relays) considering they're all rusted out. Since you're a HUGE EV guy call it 'GROUNDED. Definately pull the fuel lines from the rails and run an external tank up front for all the gasoline to pump (water,etc.) out of the back. Test all your coil packs. Drain your oil and flush the whole system including the radiator. Plan on spending $400.00. A new battery is close to that anyhow. Feel guaranteed that all the relays that send lights to your computer are jacked up and hot swap every one. Chase that GREMLIN! Cheehoo! Don't feel afraid to use a red paint pen to mark each of the grounds that you tackle or dot the relays of known issues.

    The injector spray patterns look like absolute garbage by the way so I would definitely clean those.
