ford focus tdci 2006 loss of power Sign In

hi all,while driving my ford focus yesterday there was a sudden loss of power and also power steering went same time,strangely the engine continued to tick over with all the lights on the dash lighting up.When i got pulled over i switched it off but when i tried to start it wouldnt,this time there was just one flashing light what i believe was the immobilser light i think?After gettin towed home couple of hours later i checked to see if it would start and it did no problem,this time with an orange warning light which i was told was engine dianostics light.Next day local mechanic coudnt find anything wrong on checking with his computer and recomended taking it to a ford garage,with a warning they might not solve the problem either but will charge plenty.Would be grateful to here from anybody that has had same problem,any advice or solutions would helpful,thanks.

Maybe possible bad connection at the battery would be my guess. I know if they loose power while the key is on and power is restored the PATS (theft) light will flash and wont restart. It takes about 5 mins with it off and key out to reset the PATS system. Did you notice if your odometer reading came up when the light was flashing or was it just hash marks?.
