I hate to say it but that's the signs of a bad head gasket for that engine. Those 3.4L motors are very common for intake leaks and head gaskets. The head gaskets don't like the overheating.

Something is not right with your car. There should be no 'smells' with a new belt. Sounds like it was somehow installed wrong.

Don't blame GM or the dealer. The reason the radio locked up was not because of the disconnected battery. It's from the new BCM you installed that apparently was not set up correctly.

I am going to guess that it's the seat heating elements that are bad. It sounds like the heater control module keeps trying to turn the elements on but senses a problem and turns off right away.

When you press the heated seat switch on do you hear a relay click? And do you hear another relay click within a second or 2? If so then one of the seat heater elements is most likely burned out.
