Hi everyone
I am in need of some car help please.
My brother drives a 2005 Toyotoa Corolla it's done 50K and is a 1.6 petrol automatic.
A few days ago he stated that the car was "over-revving" and he could smell a burning smell from his car whilst driving, he also stated the brakes felt stiff- and the car was losing power.
All seemed well, he carried on driving for 3-4 days straight - and no issues.
However today, whilst driving on a normal 40mph road the car started to over-rev again, losing power, and it came to a hault. The engine starts with no problems no dashboard faults/light come up either, but the car wouldn't move forward, opened the bonnet and could spell a burning smell
After 20 minutes of waiting, the car moved again..
Does it seem like a brake-fault? Does anyone have any suggestions
Thank you for taking your time to read this post
