My E46 had its battery die within a month of moving back to AZ -- the car was about 3 1/4 years at the time. It was mid Sept -- and probably ~105 or so high that day. The MINI battery lasted a little over 4 years -- and it also died on a hot Sept day...

Come to think of it the battery on the E36 croaked on an extremely cold day (minus 15). I guess extreme temperatures can be the death of a battery.
