The lights flickering is more then likely your altenator. My mothers car has the same problem right now. After the altenator was replaced on the car, ( about two years later) the lights began to flicker. When we brought it to the mechanic he said it was the altenator... but he told us it would be pointless to replace since it's working fine. More or less it's just annoying but shouldn't affect the car

When you get in the car and the lights are flickering, Rev the car a little if it goes away WHILE you are revving the engine,if it does then it's your altenator.

by the way my mothers car has been doing this for about 3 years now.
