Yesturday i went out in my car as i needed to pick up my 3yrs sons medication for his epilepsy. Car started but sounded a little rough but picked up quite quickly this was unusual cos its never given me trouble on start, But just put it down to the cold as the car was completely frozen.
I left the car ticking over wilst i cleaned down the windows etc, then set off, i got 2 streets away and the oil light came on bleeping at me? But the car has enough oil its on the max mark.
I went to turn round to try and get home and it just conked out.
i restarted and again sounded rough.
conked out again and wouldnt restart it was as though the battery had died without any warning.
So today i went out bought a new battery and the car didnt want to start just turned slow and died like the battery was dead.
So i got my brother here with jump leads and managed to start the car with more power,It ticked over but was very rough i left it ticking over for a good half hour till it got up to temperature warm the oil up. The car can now start itself with no aid from jump leads. But sounds rough as a dog and when i rev it i get a engine clang noise? and the car has lost power a great deal.
I tried new spark plugs with no joy,
Now im left baffled by the engine noise im thinking either the timming belts jumped or a dodgy valve?? cos its as if its not firing on all 4.
Would it make a clang noise if all 4 where not firing??
could it just be coil pack or its it well a truly Fooked?
any help would be appreciated, thanks.
