The strange thing is that I started this over 12 months ago and had not had a problem again until this week. Car went in for 45k service on wednesday. Picked it up wednesday evening, drove home. Drove out the next morning to a local shopping centre and when I came back wouldnt start.

They had to send the service manager out to me at the shopping centre because they couldnt get the car out on the back of the tow truck because of the height in the multi level carpark. They ended up putting a new battery in and all good.

They believed that while it was in the service bay it had been left unlocked for most of the day and the car had been polling for the key all day and drained the battery. Not sure if that would be the case, but now have another new battery (car is just over 12 months old and this is the 3rd).
