Slow power drain?

Hi Guys,

 

Well I didn't get my Supra today :( The garage are saying that they think there is a power drain somewhere :shrug: and that when they tried to start the car after fitting a new cam belt this morning it wouldn't start. Now the battery they had on it was new and fitted last week and the sales guy said he saw it being driven round earlier in the week which at the time I thought was to check the cam belt / service went okay. It aparently starts ok when they hook it up to their jump starter but it just dies again when the take that off.

Is there something that could cause a gradual drain? I am assuming they checked to make sure all the things like radio was off etc. The other thought I have at the mo (based on the fact the car was being driven about during the week) is that the cheeky sods are pulling a fast one so they can hang onto a nice motor for as long as they can (especially with the weekend being as nice as it is).

One thing is for sure, I'll be checking the milage when they finally get it to me :badmood:
