Well, if ya find it be sure to share... I am officially on my 6th battery, GM has searched dilgently and has come up empty each time. Even replaced all kinds of stuff, even the starter for the slow cranking (found to be drawing over 300amps) assoiated with this battery issue. But the starter was good once removed, but they installed a brand new OEM one this time.

Yep,everything on mine checks out perfect, they even kept it for 2 weeks to try to find anything, even had the guru`s from OnStar check the whole system, nothing was found. They checked even all the harness to see if pinched or damaged, nothing.
I have noticed that my volts read between 12.8 to 14.6 while driving. Maybe its time for a new alternator? I know I have a draw too, and it might be onstar. My DVD/Nav runs a lot with the key off. Car has only been slow to turn over a few times and I have never experienced dim lights or anything when my voltage drops.

Every wire,relay module,wake to sleep mode even the 17 hr cycle has been checked, verified. No dimming of lights or strange flucations either. On a few occasions I have found a P01639 code for the alternator/regulator but once the batt was dead so was the code. The alternator passes every test even a controlled load test beyond 100amps and back down.

Stock navigation. Intake swap is looking sick. I just need to get my battery replaced and tighten up a few loose ends. Still have posi, gears and valvebody parts to install. Got Nos? Hint.. hint...
