You don't have a OBD11 dongle plugged in do you?

That can and does kill batteries.

I have the car back now. I was told that the keyless system didn't shut down and was constantly looking for the key. They have carried out a software update and the car has been fine for the last few days. Interesting fault though, i suppose its a passive system that only looks for the key once the door handle is touched, and then looks to make sure the key is in range? Not sure...
