hey guys,
i own a vt calais.. it's not supercharged it's just the stock v6..
the other day my battery died, i brought a new one and dove to work with out any problems but 2 days later i drove to work and when i parked up i noticed smoke coming out from under the bonnet.. i pooped the bonnet to have a look and it was coming from the drivers side near the fan belt.. and i really strong burning rubber smell..
i drove home in the afternoon, no smoke but still the burning smell when i got home.. i parked the car for an hour and later went to go out and get pizza, and the car wouldnt turn over as if the battery was dead.. it was a new battery.. and when i got home the battery was compltly dead i couldnt open the doors, and had to crawl through boot again..
i've removed the belt and all the pullys spin ok besides the crank..
was just wondering what this burning rubber smell could be? any help would be good i'm suppose to be going away next week and leave the misus the car so i need to fix it really bad..
thanks in advance..
