I had "high battery drain while stationary" message a few times when first starting the car. Turned out it was the rear boot lock module not going to sleep properly and causing a drain. It was also playing up a bit at the same time so was fairly easy to diagnose. Before it gave trouble though they just seem to change bits which could be costly if not under warranty.
