Hi guys I would really appreciate any help I can get.
Firstly I have been getting like a sqeeling sound from near the power steering pump it starting off coming and going once in a while. Now it's constant but goes off occasionally. And also developed another sound these last few days sounds like a whine or air relese kind of sound.
Today I started the car and drove for while and what happen was. All the lights on the dash came on and my sat nav was flickering on and off and then my stereo sound wouldn't come on and my headlights were flickering on and off too! So I pulled over into a side road and turned the car off. Then when I tried putting it back on it didn't wanna start like the battery had drained so I jump started it and it started and I drive 7 miles back home. With the heating and the lights and radio off. Even if I open the window or use the wipers all the lights on the dash come bk on as if there's barely any power in the battery. Wat could this problem be?
Isit just a dead battery?
Or isit the alternator?
Has anyone ever had this problem?
Sorry for the long thread guys
Thanks for reading.
