   I had this problem, turned out to be the battery. It had dead cells, thought it was the alternator, but found out that the battery was actually charging.

   battery is ok, the first problem was, when driving/accelerating the power of the engine is holding back a little bit, and now since yesterday the car won't even start anymore.......
