mine did exactly the same, but the alt light didn't come on!
new one cured it spot on
yep was the alty, i fitted a new 1 yesterday, i did it on my own from a guide on here and i cant believe how easy it was ( it did take me 4 or 5 hours) but im not the best with a spanner and would say id prefer to do this again anyday over doing a clutch cable
good effort!!! saved yourself 2 hours mechanics labour costs at least!!! cant beat gettin your hands dirty. and about the clutch cable, try doin a clutch pedal kit and then u will love doin the cable. cable= a doddle compared to pedal kitOriginally Posted by simonr85
