No start issue, parasitic drain?

Hey guys,



After many hours of searching online, I have not found any solutions to my problem so I'll bring it up here.



I drive a 2000 323ci, babied with 96k miles. To sum a long story short, I've noticed my car intermittently having an extended crank or just not starting at all once or twice, so I bought a new battery. A few weeks later I'm at a restaurant and leave the car for a half an hour only to come out to the car not starting at all (dash lights, ac, radio, etc would come on fine). So I got a jump, did my research and assumed the alternator may have been the culprit. Replaced the alternator, no luck, further researched and figured it may be the starter so I changed that as well which was a PITA (both the alternator and starter I purchased are remanufactured). After replacing the car started just fine and lasted a few more weeks, now I'm having the very same starting issue, and after numerous attempts I can't get a jump start!



I've read up a bit about an FSR replacement and how the unit can drain a battery, sometimes even over night, but my ac fan never fluctuates as described in the failing symptoms?



I'm very confused right now, I've changed almost anything I could think of. Could it be the FSR, bad starter, some sort of wiring issue??
