Yes, well it was like this............OK yes it was just the alternator........... ::) ::)

Now then, why would low voltage affect the power steering when it runs of the belt? All sorted though?

On the question of How Much, how much do you think I was charged for calling out a tow truck at tea time on a Sunday?...............

It should be somewhere around £50-80 I would have thought, as it was a short distance. Possibly on the low end as they did the repair :-\

Yep, I was well chuffed by the bill, he charged me £60, when I mentioned this to him, on collecting the car, he said he would normally charge around £100; but our whole family use him, and have done for many many years........ :y :y
