Rubriken är lite tillspetsad, men baseras på regeringens mått för att vara självförsörjande. För att citera artikeln:
>Enligt regeringens mått krävs en inkomst på 20 850 kronor i månaden före skatt för att man ska vara självförsörjande. 41 procent av de butiksanställda tjänar mindre än så på de ordinarie kontrakten. Även om ob-ersättning räknas in ligger 34 procent under gränsen.
Ford Galaxy Mk3 2016/10 2.0TDCi engine. 4x4.
240 000km.
Lots of question marks since I've got no idea what I'm talking about.
The engine has been running a bit loud/rough for a few weeks. Had time today at the local mechanic to look at it. Yesterday, the car suddenly claim it couldn't charge, or something (wife was driving at the time).
Opened the hood when she got home and saw this spring (picture) had come out from a pulley near top of the hood/left of engine cover.
Going to get it towed to a mechanic, who will look at it, and also replace timing belt, water pump (it's due at 10 years/240k kilometers).
What can I expect? Is there something I can do myself? Have done some car work before, but never anything more advanced with the engine.
Edit: the topic should say "alternator" not "generator". Not native English speaker, so I just used the word closest to the Swedish word generator.. 😄
Edit 2:
Found this video, so I guess the spring inside the decoupler on the generator has come loose
