I've had a couple of batteries drain on my 96 9000, which I have assumed to be dud batteries. Both died after sitting for a few days, and would not take a charge. I checked several times after each incident and there was no current drain (beyond normal). Both batteries were about a year old, but covered under a 36 month warranty, and luckily both times the car was in my driveway. Last time I replaced the battery and drove for about a year with no incident. I just replaced the battery about a week ago and so far so good. I am wondering if perhaps the trunk was ajar and the light was on which drained the battery, though that probably does not explain it not taking a charge. Kind of like the 88 which had a mercury switch for the light.
Guess sometimes there are mysteries.
