Mazda 3 MPS Mk1
Hi guys im having a bit of a problem!!
The car has been running perfect up until this morning when it randomly had the stop and battery light illuminated, and it has never done this before. I drove the car about 7 miles and stopped. Around 4 hours later i returned to
the car, same problem, but it started ok but didnt quite sound right. I stopped the engine and started again to see if it would clear the problem, and then it didnt seem to have the power to start.
I ended up getting bump started
Is it common for an alternator to just die like that??
Im pretty sure thats what it is....
