2005 Base C6 w/ 6spd. Two weeks ago I installed my 5th (fifth) battery in this 5 year old car. ad This new battery is a $180 4 year free replacement battery. Typical event: The car will sit for weeks with out a problem. Then one day I drive it and the next day the battery is dead. The dealer claims the car has the latest s/w build. Today I went to the car after it had been sitting 3 days and the battery was dead. I charged it for 2 hours. I started the car and even after the two hour battery pre-charge the alternator burned out in about 10 minutes. (That is a first.)
I know now to try and isolate the circuit by pulling fuses. But the questions are:
1. Is there a TSB with hints about where to start the search or maybe some other approach?
2. Does anyone know a way I can verify if the car really has the latest software build?
tks
