My car shut off while I was driving, and won't start, what could be the problem?

I was driving domestic on the freeway, and came around a bend and then all of a sudden my car started going down in speed, and the gauges and my lights started flickering and then I decent lost power, everything shut off and I had to coast to the side of the road. I had an officer try to jump my car, and before he got there I tried turning it back on, and it wouldn't cool off over at all and when I turned the key all my lights got real dim. The officer tried jumping my car, and this time it turned over kinda, and made this *whur whur whur* clap, real low and and real slow. There was a clicking noise coming from inside the engine bay down in the car, and we figured it wasn't thriving to be jumped. I got pushed off the freeway, and by the time I got to the parking lot, my gauges that were looking normal at the beginning of the elbow, now were almost off. Backstory, my car was in desperate need of an oil change (it'd be 18.5k miles, a combo of no money/laziness) so I reminiscences maybe my engine had seized up. But would this happen if the alternator went out? That's what I'm thinking happened, but I'm not sure. Does anyone recognize what is/could be wrong with my car?

I drive a 1998 nissan altima


sounds like the alternator. Take it to the auto electrician


YOUR BATTERY IS DISCHARGED AND WOULD NOT Remain TO RUN THE VEHICLE.. OR START IT BACK UP,,, MOST LIKELY AS YOU STATED YOUR ALTERNATOR IS BAD.. CHARGE THE BATTERY AND START IT,, USE A VOLTMETER ACROSS THE BATTERY WHEN Machine IS RUNNING,, IT SHOUILD BE AT LEAST 13.5 VOLTS.. IF NOT REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR.,,,ART


I had a alike resemble prob. I was driving and my car just sorta lost power like yours and was acting funny. I m no crack but i needed to buy 2 or 3 sensors for my engine. One of them was my oxygen sensor and it ended up costing me around 800 dollars. All being well its something else and a lot cheaper good luck.


tow it to a garage


It does rugged like an alternator, however before you tear in to the alternator take a look and make sure your belts are in proper inure and have not broken, come lose or may be slipping. I have people from time to time bring me cars that have charging problems. They replaced alternators, batteries, cables, and not once ever take to be the belts to be the problem. The auto tensioner fail more often then one would think as the springs and bearings in them break, desert, or become weak, or having a belt with 60 to 80K on them that are cracked, brittle, and slipping. So take a good look at the belts. Plague on it a bit and see how tight it is. If it moves with little or mild effort you tensioner needs to be replaced. Other wise take the alternator out and have it tested.

1995 Nissan Maxima smoking badly?

When I was driving my nourish's 1995 Nissan Maxima up the hill, I smelled a strong burning smell but since I was a block from home, I continued to move it. When I got home, I saw smoke rising from under the hood and then popped it. Smoke billowed out from the front and the back of the engine. At first I thought no oil but the oil was WAY too full, the whole dipstick was covered. Coolant, ATF unstable everything was fine and when I let it idle to see if it did it again, it did not. It's an auto and the temperature was normal the whole way home, around 10-13 miles. The power steering or slow fluid (it's next to the coolant tank) I don't know which one it is thought but it was bubbling. Any help?

Do most men with small trucks want a big truck otherwise known as "man trucks"?

I asked this dispute earlier this week
Do you know anyone who owns a huge over sized truck that has absolutely no use for it?

my friend told me i am wasting my scratch owning a big truck and it's stupid to own one unless you need one. But today he asked me if he could use my truck to bring low-down to his yard and pick up furniture that he bought at the furniture store. I bought it a few months ago and haven't in effect needed it yet but I do plan on buying a rather large camper fifth wheel that will be atleast 30 feet fancy and 9thousand pounds. So I do feel i need the truck since even a standard size v8 truck would be able to drag the big of a trailer. I would like to here your story of someone who doesn't need a big truck but owns one. i honestly haven't met anyone who owns a full assay truck and doesn't use it. I don't consider little nissan trucks with 4 bangers because that not really a "man" commerce



And I got some nasty people who Iguess own 4banger trucks who all said people who drive big trucks are fair driving them to be "cool" or have small penis's. I've never met anyone who ownes a v8 pickup commodities and doesn't use it atleast once a month. I know people have 4X4's and don't need it but it only cost an extra 1100 dollars for the election so it's really not a big amount of money. I would like to know where the stereo type came from. As far as I'm disturbed man who doesn't have a truck is just a lazy bum. And I don't drive a truck to show off my status.

All-new Nissan Quest, Infiniti QX56 to bow next year

Elvacano has some speed and I give someone a part of him. Forums evade all credibility when people use the reactions dweeb knee and cut understanding of the comments that are unambiguously made without their brains out before stoma sympathetic or keyboard. The U.S. automotive energy is less than convincing taxpayers Filthy Lucre to survive their endless mistakes and buy votes with money from their unsavory is preventing war for our dollars, what is called the "Japs" or we? Wake up, people buy their cars for a purpose, not because they must.I am sure you must believe the recess of us are stupid or careless, but the chickens were completely wet a pedigree ungenerous. The sissies you are talking about the remuneration of GM hand and I bet you do not show their change down and let the GM Skirl! If you need to be an arrogant man, starting a position to resume the bailout of GM and let Sissies but their taxes in their own bank account as an alternative to GM! Nissan has had its successes and failures, but all-inclusive, it is usually a theater known for reliability and genuine value.
