Hi,
This is my mums car. She was driving home the other day and she said there was a really loud screaming noise from the engine bay, louder than a fan belt squeal, a burning smell and then something went 'poof' (her words, lol) but the car carried on. When she got home, just a couple of miles later,
Classic! Sorry. I just can't imagine continuing after that.
Sounds like a chort circuit of some description, but from the information given only a psychic could tell you what to order.
Odd that you should suggest a starter or relay. If the starter relay malfunctioned while the car was running you might get the interesting result you describe. Is there a bit more to this story?
