Theres a lot of people out there with the same or similar problem.

I shut the MMi down simply by a long press on the small volume knob, but before this i click on telephone > Setup > Switch off phone

Ive no idea how long the modules are really staying on, i was doing this "shutdown" procedure as a test to see if the TSB could be correct.

As I put a brand new battery in - and it took 2 weeks to run it down till the issue occured, i beleive thats the time im going to have to wait to see if it reoccurs or whether the 5570 actually fixed it.

from what ive been reading im not sure the TSB goes far enough, and its possible that not only the radio's failure to switch of is the problem, others have done various tests and discovered the nav or the telephone at fault (hence me switching of mine)

as architex says its a bitch to find solutions to strange issues like this

but if it reoccurs i think i may change the energie manager just to discount it

give yours a try, but first vagcom a new battery serial number, give it a run , then switch everything of, if you dont reset it first it that fault of a diminishing battery will always be there.
