redes.... If you get a new alternator it will be fixed...

I get this too but mine is an 06. Just on idle. You give it a little gas and it goes away. Doubt the alternator or battery are gone so soon. I did a overnight charge of the battery just in case and nothing changed.

Exactly. Once you step on the gas the flickering goes away... then when you let off it slowly polsates. yeah i dont bet that its going to go out anytime soon... the sucky thing is that i know the problem is there, the good thing about it though is at least i know what to fix.

I got the same issue, flickering at idle, goes away as RPMS go above 1k.

I also have an issue where I have a dim sport between 3.5k RPM and 5.5k RPM on the gauges, its a sport darker then the rest of the gauges.

BTW any one know where the ground is for our gauges?????

The way I look at it, as long as you are not running no crazy system with Subwoofer and couple amps you should be fine with just a regular $50 battery.

I use one and have 600watt Woofer with amp and its been great for past 9 months.
