TBH, my battery could be getting down, it does sound like its struggling to turn over on cold mornings and also when the belt is wet, it slips then when I go up the road, it will squeal and get grip, then my lights and everything brighten up, obviously because the alternator starts working properly but I suppose it could be the battery at fault but I sprayed WD-40 on the belt and it stopped squealing so.. Not sure, we'll see once I fit the new belt..
