I've got an 06 Focus Sport TDCi, 1.6l and while driving this morning, after about 40 miles, I noticed the battery light came on. Suspecting a broken fan belt I looked for a place to pull over and kept an eye on the temperature gauge. It didn't move and after about 5min the light went off. The engine sounded different, a whirring sound came when the revs were above 1500rpm.
I parked up and called my garage and arranged to take it in tomorrow. On the way back, literally as turned into my drive, the ABS and Power Steering lights came on, then went off and on again. The steering went as pulled up to stop.
I've had a quick look and the belts look in place. If they were slipping wouldn't they make a horrendous screeching sound?
Any other ideas?
