e55 is DEAD
was in NY for biz and the 55 sat for four days. came back and was dead (2 volts vs 12 volt full charge). anything that may have caused this trickle? ...MB road assist came out and jumped to start but had to take in today b/c of SRS malfunction lights and whole host of other things. anyway, best part is while at dealer one of the service reps who lives in my neighborhood seems very MOD friendly and a great guy. mentioned when time comes he will take care of managing rep change switch at dealer and will be happy to work with me to accommodate and care for car so warranty is intact should ever be an issue. OH, HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AT LAST.

Some reading material for you.
My car did the same thing but only took 10 hours to completely drain the battery.Jumped it and took it to the dealer to have the SRS light reset.Dealer tells me that there is a faulty SRS sensor,harness,plug and all kinds of other crap wrong with it.Those techs are nutz.it was just fine until the battery went dead,they fixed that problem but just had to tear into my car to find the SRS light problem.....I asked them why they didnt just reset the light and be done with it,but noooooooo.They must of needed some hours flagged or something.
