It sounds like all is ok if it comes on when the door is unlocked/opened and goes into charge mode (without the screen being on) after the door is locked/closed. Best thing is to lock your car and go and have a cuppa. The go and check and it should have powered down.
Thanks jords.
Seems kinda strange that it takes so long to power down though, don't you think!. Not good if you're leaving it on 'display' anywhere
