I'm going to gather up the appropriate data and then write something up on Monday and shoot it out to some of the car sites I frequent - Edmunds' Insideline, Jalopnik, and Autoblog - any other suggestions?

i ask because there might be some link (not verified) of cars with lower battery charge having this issue more than others.
especially for those in very hot or very cold climates cca can vary greatly...and 3yrs is about when batteries start to show wear if not on battery manager. |
Is it possible, then, to mitigate or overcome the issue by getting a new battery?? Could be an easier fix than the $500, out-of-stock part.
EDIT: Perhaps nevermind - just saw this post from the other thread...

My 09 is up to 34,000 miles with a revision B and I have not yet encountered it.
