They can't find it, don't know what it is. There's a short or a chaffed wire somewhere. Sounds like looking for a needle in a haystack to me

They should be able to isolate the leak to a specific fuse circuit at least. They could put a current meter on the battery, pull the fuses on the 'always on' stuff like alarm, door locks, power seats etc. If it still draws current then start pulling fuses one by one until they find the right one that stops the current drain. Then it's a matter of cross referencing the things on that circuit with the work that was done on it recently for some likely candidates.

Of course, if the drain is with any of the 'always on' stuff then that's a little trickier. Hmm, that new E70 is starting to sound like a plan.
