Problem: engine stutters or stalls randomly. Sometimes triggered by rolling over bumps.
Codes: intelligent battery sensor communication, various alternator codes, oil condition sensor.

Took my car to local Indy shop, he said to replace the IBS. Replaced it and problem still occurred. I took a look at the wiring diagrams in Bentley and noticed that a single wire ran from the DME and splices to the alternator and oil sensor. The splice is located in in a bundle of wires exiting the engine electronics box and has a rubber cap. I took the cap off and noticed that the wires were visibly corroded. I sprayed the wires with contact cleaner, soldered them after they were dry an replaced the cap. I did this to all the splices (there are many) and problem has not recurred. Codes didn't come back either. If anyone has a similar problem or wants to do this for preventative maintenance I would be glad to post pictures.
