Hi and welcome.

Fuel starvation? How much fuel is in the tank? In either case you really need to get it diagnosed for a fault code. It will be guess work without it. If you have breakdown cover with home start, they should be able to plug in and get any fault codes - when you do pop them up here and we can help you with the problem.
Please note, I'm no longer active on the Forum, so won't respond to messages.

How's the fuel rail pressure?
I have various repair handbooks and wiring diagrams for C5 mk1, Xantia, XM, Berlingo and C3 mk1.
I have Lexia/Diagbox (Sweden) and Servicebox/sedre
