 Hi,

I'm a newbe here, thanks in advance

C4 2007 1.6 Petrol, automatic gear. very low mileage, around 40,000.

After 30 minutes of standard highway driving, engine shut down at the first traffic light. Starter is not turning.

At the garage, battery was found as dead. After a new battery was installed, starter works ok, but engine does not start. Computer said faulty coil. coil was replaced and the issue remained.

My garage person said it was probably the "exchange box" - a computer like box where many wires are connected at the right upper part of the bonnet. It was replaced and then the engine started and worked for 15 minutes and then shut down again.

Garage says he does not know how to proceed.

Any idea?

Many thanks

 You need to find out what error codes are stored in the onboard fault log

It says P0350. What would be the next step?

Many thanks
