Our 2005 Citroen C3 1.4HDI's battery light started flashing when we were driving and then the car lost power and engine stopped. We cant start the car now. What is wrong? :shock:

What do you mean 'won't start'. Does it turn over but not start, or does it not turn? If it is the second, it sounds like your alternator has failed allowing the battery to go flat, or the battery has failed.
