I need help...I am new to this site and am not quite sure on room etiquite...but I am looking at this GXL that has several things wrong with it. The one thing that is my main concern is the flickering check eng light. I drove a 7 TII for a few months in Japan and it allways came and went. Never on steady. This GXL is doing the same thing. Is it a deal buster?

the car drove and handled beautifully during the test drive. AC doesnt work and the seller says that a loose alt belt is causing the light. I dont think so because it had good steady volts.
