Engine fault: stop vehicle CITROËN C4 CACTUS

Hello all. 


I’m having an issue with my wife’s car, it’s a 1.6 diesel c4 cactus (2016). I’ll give you the back story. Her battery was dead (was on the way out for a while). So her and a neighbour tried to jump start it and then the “engine fault: stop vehicle” sign came up. When I got home I changed the battery and the sign was still there. The car was turning over but it would not start. 


I then plugged my code reader in and got 2 codes:


P0003- fuel volume regulator control circuit low


P0245- turbocharger waste gate solenoid. 



I’ve done a few tests and the engine definitely is not getting any fuel. I have no idea where the fuel volume regulator is. 


I’m assuming something has blown from when they tried to jump start the car? The fuses are all fine. Could it be a relay? 


Any help would be greatly appreciated! 


Thank you

    I have a Citroen c4 Picasso 2017 and stop warning comes on when first starting from cold and then goes , occasionally I get a  low oil pressure warning come up but then clears.
    The RAC have looked er it but said they couldn’t find any problems.
    My local garage had a look also they changed the oil and filter but still doing the same .
    Any ideas ?

      I would recommend checking whether the engine oil and its viscosity were correctly selected, I would also advise checking the condition of the oil pan for its deformation so that it does not block the oil intake, and check the operation of the pressure sensor and a cold start check with a pressure gauge what oil pressure.

    The fuel pressure regulator is installed on the injection pump itself, try to replace only it first, and read the error codes again if they remain.

    SAME exact thing happened to me!!
    Same year, same issues with the batteries!
    Did you find out how to fix it? 
    Or do you know maybe how big the issue is?
