coastline taxis Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 You must get a diagnostic code scan on the car. Without the scan its impossible to kinow were to start as theres just to many component on the stop/start system. Quote
paul.h Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 Welcome to the forum. The first post is a bit confusing. You say it does not start back up but instead it stalls - for it to stall it must have started back up. If the car is going in to eco mode (if you mean when it stops things like the radio to prevent the battery going flat) then the battery must not be charged up enough which could mean it is due for replacing - but if the battery needs charging it should not stop the engine. I have read on here that the battery on stop/start cars may not last that long, the alternator/starter may not last long and that both these items are very expensive. We also had a case of the battery exploding but the cause has not yet been determined by Citroen. First you could check the battery voltage and its connections and then you will need the diagnostic check. Quote
