Is there any way to add an ignition kill-switch on my 2001 Mercedes Benz S500? Battery goes dead after about five days without driving
It is called Parasitic Draw, one item is being left on and is draining power. Attach an ammeter to the battery. Remove fuses one at a time, keeping an eye on the ammeter. When you pull one fuse, you will see the reading drop a lot. That circuit is the one causing the problem. When you know the fuse, you can check all the things it covers. There will always be some draw because items like the clock and a number of modules are constantly powered.
In general terms, you can't find work-arounds for problems like this, you have to fix them. Or, you can take the vehicle to a good auto-electrician.
POWER LOCKS NOT WORKING
You will need to reove the door panel and inspect the lock motor to see if the rod has come off to the door latch or the lock actuator motor is the problem.

Car engine rough running?
The most common 3 reason why your Mercedes is running rough are a vacuum leak, an issue with the spark plugs, or a problem with the ignition coil. Clean out the throttle body and make sure there is no ware at the butterfly pivot shaft .
