RacingBlue + IceBurg
when i left earlier, i noticed when i stopped that there was a lot of resistence when turning the wheels when stationary. and made a weird sort of squeeking noise. thought it was down to water getting somewhere it shouldnt (its been belting it down all day here and drove through some big puddles) seemed fine after a while and the noise/resistence stopped.
but on my way home just now, it was as if the power steering had gone. very hard to turn the wheel. also some dash lights came on, STOP, and the picture of the engine that said stop, and also the temp gauge was right at the top. every now and then the battery light would fliker on aswell. when i got home (drove about a mile with it like this) it was over heating, opened the bonnet and the header tank was going mad, bubbling away., the fan was also on.
any ideas what could be wrong? never had any trouble like this before tonight... car is a 02 172.
