    My 05 let me sit last week... Replaced the 8yr old battery to find out it was the alternator. No one had a 130amp unit except the dealership, so that's what I bought. Only took about 30min to change the alternator. Unfortunately it took me the better part of an hour to realize there was a third bolt on the power steering pump... :mad:

    Should have watched the YouTube video before I dug in.

    Regards
    Ross
