My truck didn't experience any (negligible) battery drain until I believe update 2024.32.5.4 (might have been an update before or after that, I can't remember). Now I loose 5% per day all things being the same.

That post was from July before Tesla improved the truck's sleep behavior.
Sentry was also a bigger power hog back then. Plus cabin overheat in summer.

If you have sentry off, have you tried the two scroll wheel reset?

I've turned century off and everything else that I can possibly think of to get it to quit but it still does it. I tried the two wheel reset tonight just to be sure but still does it. I consider that a CRAZY amount of power to be lost to "thin air". Also to note is that the "energy statistics" screen doesn't reflect the loss at all. It says that I only lost like .8% when the display shows a 5% loss up in the corner. BTW almost always I only charge to 50%. I have it set to start charging at 11:00PM and when I leave in the morning (from a heated garage) at 5:00AM it shows 48% before I even put it in drive! To note: before that update it would be at 50% when I left and wouldn't hit 49% until I was a couple few miles down the road. This all started with an update (And I believe it was the one where I got park assist). It was NEVER this bad even when I ran Sentry all of the time. Not even close.
