CT200h Stalling After Fuel Filter Change

Thanks for the quick response! The fuel pressure sensor... that's a good point. I was pretty careful, but maybe I bumped something. How did you pinpoint the sensor as the problem? Did fuel efficiency suffer as well, or was it just the stalling and the check engine light?

Yeah, fuel efficiency was definitely down the drain! The workshop guys figured it out pretty quickly when they hooked it up to the diagnostic tool. Honestly, save yourself the hassle and just take it to a professional. They'll diagnose it properly and get it sorted fast. It's probably a small thing, but messing with fuel systems can be risky.

Thanks a lot for the advice! Took it to the shop, and you were spot on – it was the fuel pressure regulator. Apparently, there was an error entry after the fuel filter change. They replaced it, cleared the code, and it's running like a charm now. Total cost: 45€.

Whoa, sounds familiar! I had almost the same thing happen with my CT200h. Check engine light, stalling... the works. Did you maybe mess something up with the fuel pressure sensor when you were swapping the filter? Could that be it? Did you check that the fuel pump works properly?
