Astra Engine Stalling Incorrect Fuel Error

My 2023 Vauxhall Astra hybrid with 77389 km is showing a check engine light. The engine stalls at idle, and the error memory says there's incorrect fuel composition. Any ideas?

I had a similar issue with my Astra, though mine's not a hybrid. The computer thought I had the wrong fuel. Did you recently fill up? Maybe try a fuel additive and see if that helps.

Yes, I did fill up recently. Which fuel additive did you use, and did it completely solve the problem?

I used a fuel system cleaner, but it didn't fully solve it. It turned out to be a defective cable or plug connection. I'd recommend getting it checked at a workshop. The repair was only 95€.

Thanks for the advice! Took it to the workshop, and you were spot on – faulty connection. All sorted now.
