Something wrong with my car

bakili · 10-25-2010, 12:39 PM

i won't be able to sleep now. Car developed some kinder fault, all started yesterday, stood on traffic light on uphill, tried to move, noise from engine something like gas discharged (or maybe sounded more like belt slipped). After this car drove normally, no problems.
Today in the morning, road turns which i usually take in third gear, sound like car tries to stall. I get lit rumble noise when taking turn in third gear, no noise on second.
Car drives fine. Bit worried now.
Any suggestions?

Are you sure it's a gearing issue? If it's when turning it could be a wheel bearing?

limp mode - is it when you lose power, no power loss on my car

wheel bearing, i doubt, cause it feels like car going to stall

booked it on november 5th, to get it MOTed as well
