Check your key dependsey setting. If you resently set this you have to start over on your settings. Mine did the same thing a couple of times, but now works fine. Just keep selecting it in menu mode and it will catch on.

That happens to me sometimes for no reason...except the opposite, the seat doesnt move forward, I have to press the memory button to get it back into my position...and itll work again next time...if that doesnt work i have no idea

Had to take her Lexus 
I had MB service come out this morning, took the car to the dealer and it was the Seat-Sensor that caused the power drainage 
Part will be in on Monday.

This is a common problem for the W203. In my old C320, the problem was quite sporadic and the dealer had to do some tricks with Star Diagnose to get it work the first time and then they simply replaced the seat control module that is underneath the driver's seat.

my seat works fine, but my steering wheel recently stopped moving up and down. its stuck as high as it goes. it moves forward and backward okay, but not up and down. when i pull the key out or start the car and it automatically adjusts, the motor for the steering wheel keeps running (trying to adjust the steering wheel height). i have to tap the lever up or down to make it stop. haven't made it to dealer yet to get it checked. just thought i'd share my recent electronic problems.
