Ista-d can be perfectly used for it.

If no additional equipment in the car, you can use energy diagnosis. But first try to disconnect IBS

Yes correct, E83 doesn't have a IBS Sensor, the electronic system is similar to E46. in this case, you have to measure battery drain with a amp clamp or multimeter after the car is a sleep and then disconnect components and fuses to locate the issue.

What about "energy diagnosis" that Mr. Node mentioned (post #5)? So, afterall, ISTA-D can't do nothing, despite of what Mr. Fx82 said in post #2? Because that was the initial question

If it does not have IBS, then no energy diagnosis. Just the leg work.
