I've never had a problem with my car before, but for some reason it wouldn't start this morning. Te engine just wouldn't turn over. It eventually did, but it took ages? I have no ideas about cars whatsoever, could it just be something simple or do you think I need to take it to a garage for a once over?

No, have a beeping noise if I leave the lights on. I didn'y actually use it at all yesterday.
Stupid question, but how do you check the battery?

I don't like the sound of that!!

It's due a service about the end of next month, so might just take it in a bit ealry and get it checked out.

Thanks for you advise.
