Was leaving work last night and was driving down the road when the engine just died , still had lights on dash etc...
pulled car over to the side of the road , and found that it would turn over but not fire/start...
seemed to turn over quite quickly ... could the cambelt have slipped ? checked this morning and it had not snapped ?
i have heard if the cambelt slips it will bend valves etc ... but would i have heard that happening ? as i did not hear any metal hitting noises when the engine stopped ?
any ideas ?
thanks
