Had a problem with my car coming home from the match. It's a 2008 Ford Focus 1.8 TDCi.
Shortly after leaving the car park, the battery light came on. Then when we were stuck in traffic going past the cemetery, the ABS light and pic of a sliding car lights came on for a few minutes and went back off again, even though I wasn't sliding. The battery light remained on. I stopped at the fish shop and the car started fine but the battery light was still on driving home.
Looked in the manual and it helpfully said if the battery light is on, you have a fault so contact a mechanic.
Car is running as normal and there's no strange noises or anything out of the ordinary happening when I drive it.
Anyone want to guess at what the fault is?
Hope it's nothing serious as I'm in my mental busy season for work and can't really afford to lose days because the car is in the garage.
