You don't have much choice. I ran into this on the 530i we used to have. IF you can find the battery (special vented unit since it is inside the passenger cabin and no one within hundreds of miles of me had one that would work) you still have to take the car to the dealer to have the computer reset (or else you will ruin the new battery and start over again).

I will say that our 530i (2007) was awesome and had zero issues (besides the world's most expensive battery).
