moods Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 So I just went out to start my journey and my car 2.0 Titanium Auto 57, 36k miles, didn't start, it tried to start then the engine/starter just seemed to spin quick, now awaiting the people they call the RAC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IINexusII Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Really unlikely at 36k. did the engine spin and not start or did it sound more like just the starter spinning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I doubt it is cam belt, they tend to go bang if anything. Sounds more like it could be the starter motors clutch that has a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEADS Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Cam belts can go anytime although they say 80000/100 k it's a wareable part does it sound as if there's no compression that's the usual sound of a belt gone now if it has pm me I have two 2.0 engines in the shed which I'm going to brake for spares when I get round to it will save you a small fortune if it has ( hope it hasn't not nice) but if it is worse case sinorio and you want to save on parts pm me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
