Unhappy She wouldn't start again this morning

Argh...
It happened two months ago, two days before she got wiped out. Dealer couldn't find anything. Battery was fine, alternator etc.

Came out this morning and nada...Just chirps like the alarm warning when I tried to crank her. Same chirps when I tried to see if the interior light worked. If I opened a door it would chirp until shut.

The tailgate wouldn't open again but at least this time I was able to open a rear door and reach over to grab the cables. She's at the dealer now.

No biggie, it's just annoying. I was worried about driving her after I got her started. Someone's (Novas I think) wife lost all power on the road because of an alternator. Wouldn't be fun during rush hour. No loaners beause it wasn't an appointment, they were all gone and my SA is on vacation this week. I have a Suzuki Grand Vitara. It's actually peepy and rides a hell of a lot better than that Jeep I had for a month.

While she's there they will check out that noise from the front wheel and install the new rearview.

DO NOT say the M word John There was a nice blue M6 vert sitting there too.

Hush hush. She knows she's not supposed to buy herself a Christmas gift until LATER. Not 3 months in advance Don't tempt her.

It'll be interesting to see what's up with her X5 this time. hopefully the fix will be quick.

Thanks MD, $100G for a car ain't happening. I thought it was the battery for sure last time but they found nothing. Volts were fine, no draws....
