I have not checked the battery yet. Just bought the car last week, and this started a couple of days later. Our experience with batteries is they seem to die all the sudden because of the AZ heat. They don't go slowly.
I was told by someone at the (VW) dealership where I bought the car, that they sometimes have an issue when the keys are kept in a close radius to the car. Ours are, of course, near the door, about 20 feet from the car. I moved the keys to the back bedroom yesterday, and the car hasn't made a sound. I'm going to keep check over the next couple of days to see if anything changes, but it seems to be pointing to something going on with the key fobs.
As far as I can tell, there is no aftermarket alarm system on the car. I did a "bump test" on the car to see if it would set anything off, with no reaction.
I'm not very familiar with these key fobs. The other vehicles I have use simple, non-electronic keys, so I'm not familiar with working on these.
