My 05 freaked out today.
So I'm driving along and all the sudden my nav system quit,some of the gauges went to 0. The windows, AC, and door latches wont work. Luckily we made it to the dealer but it would not restart once we parked it.
I have a extended warranty on it so I'm not to worried but I'm curious whats wrong with it. Anyone run into something like this?
thanks

Thats what I thought at first, funny thing was the volt gauge stayed working and looked normal. I tried to check the voltage on the DIC but I couldn't get it off of the service soon message.
Could very well be the alternator, hopfully it's somthing small. Thanks guys

Definately an electric voltage issue. A bad battery will create all sorts of havoc. The computers in a C6 are voltage sensitive. The analog voltage gauge is basically just an indication, it is not sensitive enough to be of value.
