Having some further problems having recently purchased this car, it's a 2007 vectra 19cdti estate 150 Elite
was using the car today running about a few decent runs nothing on bar the radio, seems later the car was struggling to start! turning over slowly as if battery flat, 2nd attempt turned over faster.
When I got home I stuck the charger on it, was drawing 5amps on low charge, but the indicator on battery is green.
I done the timing belt on Friday full kit inc water pump and a new aux belt tensioner.
I'm suspecting the Alternator? when running voltage goes no higher than 13.8 even with a rev, previous owner claims alternator was recently changed and it does look newish! I'm wondering if an 105amp was fitted instead of 140amp, also noticed with a rev there is a whiring noise might be from Alternator, just not sure where to go with this? battery, Alternator or starter motor?
Any advice very welcome.
