Engine dies

Recommended Posts

I've got a '87 318i and I replaced the battery 2 weeks ago. Yesterday while driving the engine just died and refused to start for a few minutes - engine didn't even turn over. Then it started fine and i drove for a few hundred metres, flicked the indicator and engine died again. After few minutes it started again. As soon as I turn on radio or headlights the engine revs drop and it threatens to stall! :wacko:

I'd suggest your alternator needs checking, sounds like it's not charging your battery properly?
