Some more information...on my service receipt, the tech noted that the TCU was drawing 600mAs and causing the car not to sleep. Pulled fuses one by one and checked current draw. When he reached the fuse for TCU, the current draw decreased. Replaced the TCU and the draw was at 30mAs and within acceptable limits for sleep mode.

Eddy, fwiw I was one of the few hundred that had that problem with our '01, way back in early '02. The BizCD Radio would "wake up" and literally come on, when temps dropped below freezing; thus, several dead batt. situs. It took 3 trips to the idiot dlr and 3 attempts at a "download" fix, but it's worked fine all these years. No idea if your prob is even in the same ballpark, but not out of the question, imo. GL,mD

It's all over BMW brought the car back and I'm now the owner of a 2008 Toyota Highlander. I'm gonna miss my Beemer ..... I have to admit BMW does stand behind their product.....I might be back later in life..... maybe after the toyota wheels fall off.... or I hit the lottery...... Good Luck to you all... Good Bye.
