Firstly welcome (there is a place to go say hello).

So tell us about your car, cos to help peeps probably need more details.
The first port of call is really the battery, do you have any diagnostics to get some codes?

What codes have you got? Is the battery fully charged and in good condition?

Did the headlight flickering coincide with the engine fault? - and if so, does it still?

Check the ground points in the engine bay for corrosion and have a look around for rodent damage to the harness to the engine etc.
