My 2015 X3 is in the shop for water leakage into the same compartment... oddly enough there are drain plugs there so someone had the thought that water might leak and end up in battery compartment. Unfortunately, the control module for the rear hatch is also in there and got fried and needs to be replaces - explains the possessed rear hatch I had. I was told water can come in there because of plugged drains for the sunroof or a leaking gasket for the "shark fin" antenna for the GPS/SatRadio.

Good Luck.
