My battery also died after just two years, where the batteries in my 9000 and C900 easily last 5 to 6 years.
When you compare the battery position of the 9-5 to the 9000 ( high and far away from any heat) and the old 900 (exhaust side but with a metal heat shield) one would start to think that the 9-5 has its battery in a bad position.
My intake air temperature sensor also gets quite hot from the heat radiated from the exhaust on hot days.
Maybe the problem is aggravated by the cramped space under the hood.
