Citan engine light and error messages

My 2018 Mercedes Citan diesel is acting up The check engine light is on and I'm getting error messages I scanned it and got a weird fault code Mileage is 259615 km Could this be serious Can I do anything myself before going to the dealership Can I reset codes

That sounds annoying I had a similar issue with my old Peugeot with the check engine light and weird errors Did the scan tool say anything about incorrect coding I had that problem Have you tried clearing the code to see if it returns

Incorrect coding How did you figure that out I cleared the code, but it reappeared after five minutes Could it be a sensor What did you do to fix the Peugeot

The scan tool pointed to a coding issue If the code returns quickly, a sensor is possible, but incorrect coding is likely if the error message is vague The garage confirmed the coding was off on mine A proper engine diagnostics check at a workshop is probably best

Thanks for the advice I took it to a shop, and you were right It was a coding problem They reprogrammed something, and the error messages are gone It cost me 360€, but at least the engine light is off I appreciate the help
