hi,

i have notaced recently in the past few days... and its progressivley got worse .....

everytime i go over a small bump or imperfection in the road my sterio cuts out and the engine looses all power...
all lights flash off apart from the main beems which turn themselves on.....

also if i put my foot down.. mainly in seccond gear ocasionly (not every time) the power is also lost and the main beems come on...

the speedo reading is randomly and frequently dropping from what im doing to 0 then shooting back up and same with the revs...

can't find a pattern with all this... seems to ocur randomly...

and the car has stalled twice because of this...

any ideas atall of what it could be would be greatly apriciated!

How are the lights and everything when stopped and on idle?

Have you checked the alternator belt? I could see most of those things being a loss of electrical power so id say it would be from alternator belt, alternator, wires, battery terminals or earths. Just check all the connections and give the earths a clean and see if that sorts some of the problems out. I dont get why the main beam would flash though unless youve got a crossed wire somewhere and thats whats losing you power
