XT1032 5.1: Bluetooth drains battery?



Hi there!

Since the beginning of 2014 I have a XT1032 (Moto G 1st Gen non-LTE).
Until approx. two weeks ago it was running 5.0.2 with great battery life: max. 5 d standby with max. 5 h dot/sot.
Then 5.1 came ota, for which I was happily waiting since months.
But in the last two weeks I found that now my max. standby and dot/sot has been reduced by around 50 % with the same in-phone "devices" turned on as before.
The main power drainer now is - tadaaa - bluetooth, which before was turned on all the time, but used maybe some hours in 5 days when driving our car.
Today I unplugged the phone around 12:00 pm, activated bluetooth for max. 1 h driving around 01:00 pm, and now - at 01:30 am - bluetooth still is leading the power statistics with 3 % (battery now is at 85 %).

Any ideas how to fix this issue except doing a "hard reset"?
(If I should do one: how exactly? Via "backup & reset" -> "Factory data reset"? Or should I finally unlock it and install GPE 5.1 modified >= v1.4?)

Thank You very much in advance!

With kind regards,
Chriss
