Default Re: always dead

do you leave your key in the ignition when the car is parked in the garage?

in some cars... even though the key is not in the on position...it still creates a draw. this was the case in my wife's X5 & moms 3 series (all bmw's) and we had to keep changing the battery/charging until we were informed. in some cases if the car sat in the garage for a few days...then i went to start it...it was completely dead.

i'm not sure if the set up is the same with crossfire's electrical system...but could be a possibility.
