Default perifieral PXAMG Battery issues

Frequent reader, First time poster. Sorry if this is redundant, I did a forum search and did not find a good answer to my question.

The Chevy dealership oursourced the installation of the Periferal PXAMG into my 2009C6 with Nav. I chose this device as many posters on this forum said there were no battery issues. Problem is, I live in Chicago and don't drive the car every week. Now the battery seems to go dead in about 2 weeks. Otherwise, it works fine. Did they install the PXAMG incorrectly? Is there a proper installation that I can recommend they correct?

Thanks in advance!

Par for the course. If you leave your iPod in the adapter, it is constantly talking to it and charging it. If you keep the car in a garage, be sure to disconnect the iPod. I even recommend using a trickle charger.

Thanks for the advice. Truth is, I never leave the phone charging when the car is not running. I always take the phone with me. I guess I'll have to get a trickle charger unless someone thinks this is wired wrong.
