I am trying to identify a draw that kills my battery withing about 5 days.
No visible items staying on, confirmed frunk & glove box lights are off, interior lights off and no accessory items are on

New Battery and good charging system, vehicle locked when parked.

I will do the draw test this weekend but I was wondering if there is a known cause.

Any aftermarket electronics, phone chargers, etc connected? It seems like you are looking at ~0.5A draw. Do you have a DC amp clamp? Could be bad diodes in the alternator drawing current if you tested all the fuses already (alternator is not fused).

DC amp clamps are quite affordable these days btw

ipod adapter and radar detector removed already. good tip on the amp clamp, I will pick one up so when i get started I have the right tool.

Thanks for the alternator tip, I will check that out as well by isolating while checking for draw.

There's a fat cable (actually multiple cables in series) from the battery leading to the engine compartment "+" jump point. Put the amp clamp around that cable and you will see the draw from the alternator, if any.

Suggest you search for recent thread which identified problems with the "Y connector".
