My couple of weeks old TM3 LR AWD is experiencing some vampire drain and wanted to share my numbers. I know sentry needs energy so this morning I turned it off and decided to check up on the car every hour (I know I would be waking her up).
Here are my findings:
10:00 - 372km
12:00 - 368km (4km lost in 2 hours)
15:00 - 363km (9km lost in 5 hours)
The weather is not that bad - it was about -1C around 10 and now (15:25) is about +1C in west Mississauga.

So here is the million dollars question - is this normal? I doubt it, but what do you guys think? I wanted to see what your experience is before I contact Tesla. With this type of vampire drain I don't even want to think what's going to happen when the real winter starts and we hit -40C.
