Evening
Just wondering if anyone can diagnose a fault on a clio 1.2 16v. A friend called saying that her car would'nt start. I figured flat battery, so tried jump starting it. It turned over briefly and then stopped sundenly - (kinda like a stuck starter mortor??).
I let the battery charge for bit and then tried it again, it fired up ok, but sounded real roungh, knocking quite badly.I turned it off and am now wondering was it the timing belt. Needless to say, im afraid to drive it!
Only 35,000 on the car.
Any idea's? or similar problems?
Thanks
Gerdy
