Arkana check engine light and stalling

I'm experiencing a perplexing issue with my 2020 Renault Arkana, gasoline engine. The check engine light is on, the engine stalls at idle, and there's a noticeable reduction in engine power. The vehicle currently has 244177 km. It seems like this may have started after a fuel filter replacement.

I have an Arkana as well. I had similar symptoms appear after a fuel filter change. Rough idle, check engine light, and all. Did you happen to get any error codes read?

Yes, the error code points towards a defective fuel pressure regulator. I suspect an error entry occurred after the fuel filter replacement. Did your error code also point to the fuel pressure regulator, and what steps did you take?

Yes, the error code pointed to the fuel pressure regulator. Given the symptoms, and that it occurred after the filter change, I would suggest taking it to a workshop to have the fuel system properly checked. It could be a number of things, but best to have it diagnosed professionally.

Thank you for the advice. I took the car to the workshop, and indeed, the fuel pressure regulator was the issue. The repair cost 45€. Your input was helpful.
