I had a '96 960 and used to let it sit for up to 2 months, never had this problem. That car had the original Volvo battery for the first 8 years, too. I also had a '94 965 and never had this problem.
I'm still leaning toward the battery as the problem. During the same two weeks my 245 sat, and it draws 200 mA, and starts right up. I use an Autozone battery in that which is larger than the orig OEM battery though. I have had great service from Autozone batteries.
