Thanks a lot to all for the help.
I actually don't think the faulty part is the TCU (even if it's the one which drains the power). The fact that you replaced yours and had the same problem a few days later somehow confirms this thinking.
In my case the module keeps waking up every 5-10 minutes ...draining for 3-4 minutes and then goes to sleep again. I really would like to understand what is causing this but....it's so time consuming that I really tend towards simply cutting the power supply trough the ignition switch position.
