I have KIA CERATO-2010 Full option, car is new used for 2 months, I leaved the Car off for 5 days I found the battery discharged to Zero
1-I charged the Battery to Normal power and after 5 days Battery found discharged to Zero, so is there any power consumption when the car is Off
2-if yes, it can be cause a battery discharged to Zero
3-If I disconnect the Battery Negative cable for long time 15 days for Ex is this causing any problem.
Note: After charging if I used the Car daily no problem at all the starting normally the problem only when I leave it 4 days continuously off.

You may have a faulty battery, get it load tested as this is the only test for a battery, if that is ok, get a current draw test done, this will show up any current draw that is causing the battery to discharge over a few days, if the car is new, this should be under warranty.
