over the last few weeks car has started to develop a weird squeel, it does it on idle more than anything else and sounds consistent at 1 pitch (imagine the sound a jet engine produces), i get the feeling its a belt of some kind either loose or rubbing on something, also this may not be connected but it also feel as tho the car is running very rough on tick over at lights ect, almost as though its chugging like a tractor although not as severe obviously, the squeel dies as you kill the engine, but not instant, it dies over about half a second as the pitch dropps off. on the way home tonight things got much worse, i just managed to get it home, car is running really rough, much worse than ever before, just uploading videos to photobucket now, see what you all think, exhausts popping, no accelaration when pressing accelerator, rev needle jumping between 1k and 500 at standstill. car struggled on motorway to even get to 70, although i was trying to take it really easy but could tell it was making hard work of it.
hi all,
well another summer, another problem arises!!
