Hey all,

Here is an update. The dealer replaced the alternator again and when I drove it home I saw no headlight flickering. It has been a couple of days and I haven't had time to drive it again to test, but will be keeping an eye on it. My wife says the steering feels funny like it did the first time before the car died. I believe she is talking about the steering assist where it is very easy to turn when you are parking or at slow speeds. I noticed that it seemed different also. Is this electronically controlled? Maybe it is related? I will have to check for a bad connection/short, I guess.

I really appreciate all the input I have received on this thread. Very useful stuff. I don't think the service guy I spoke to at the GM dealer knew what a TSB was. He said he has never heard of alternator problems. It could be they replaced the last one with the updated version, but good service is very hard to find around here.

My wife wants my LS, so we will be selling the Intrigue. I want to make sure we get this stuff worked out first though.
