Hi, Im hoping someone might be able to have an educated guess at a problem thats baffled me for sometime over the last 3-4 weeks.
I have a petrol powered Peugoet 206 1350cc GLX 5dr on a 52 plate. (61000 miles).
Problem- I was first alerted to the digital timer resetting itself from the correct time previousley displayed, this coupled with the fact that ive been having to bump my car first thing each morning to get her started, once shes started shes fine, starts first time everytime, until the next morning, then i have to bump her again.
When i place the key into the ignition and go to start her it sounds like the battery is just about to die kinda sound. Howvere theres a little more to it which is why i dont think its a bad battery, its central locking and when i turn the ignition key to start her in the morning all the locks in the car click, as if im unlocking all the doors with the fob key. Ive even had wipers that have come on, lights etc. It seems obvious to me it aint the battery, could this be the starter or the alternator?
Also, a couple of times this has happened recently too, ive turn the key and it started up but rev'd very high, everyone looked as u can imagine but its not a sticky pedal, wondering if this incident could be tied in to the problem i have now> Same thing?
Any help would be cool, the battery does light up on the dashboard and doesnt disappear so all roads point to the battery, just a bit wierd thats all.
