C6 fuel pressure sensor issue

Fuel pressure sensor, huh? I didn't think about that. Where is that thing located anyway? And would a bad sensor really cause all those problems? Fuel economy has also gone down the drain, could the fuel injector be involved?

The sensor is usually on the fuel rail. Yes, a defective fuel pressure sensor can cause those symptoms, leading to miscalculated fuel mixture. Given the symptoms, the cable or plug connection to the sensor is a likely culprit. Check this, or leave it be and visit a workshop.

Thanks. Turns out you nailed it – fuel pressure sensor. The cable connection was janky. 95€ later including diagnostics and I'm back on the road. Appreciate the help!

Fuel pump issues on the C6 aren't uncommon. Have you checked the fuel pressure sensor? Stalling and rough running could indicate a faulty sensor. Also, have you scanned for any specific error codes relating to fuel pressure or injector performance?
