Hi all,
So yesterday while driving home on the highway and then stopping to turn into a side road. No hooning or unnecessary sport mode action. My check engine light came on with a beep and the car slowly died. I tried starting again but When i turn the key it sounds like the engine itself isn’t turn but rather just the starter swinging? So the sequence of events was slow down at traffic light to turn into side road then slow and turn into another side road, light beep dead. Slight acceleration between each slowing...
What could it be? I saw no smoke or smelled anything burnt or anything worrying just the beep, engine slowly dying and then nothing. The car has water and it has oil. With nothing spewing out or on the ground. I know it could be major like cambelt or something but also hoping its something small. Some insights on what to look for would helpful...
