Cylinder Pressure Fluctuation

My 2018 Vauxhall Crossland X diesel has a cylinder pressure fluctuation at 195642 km. Fuel consumption is up, engine power is down, and the check engine light is on. Diagnostics suggest a consequential error. Anyone seen similar symptoms?

Hey, I had something similar with my Crossland X. Was your consumption really terrible? Did you notice anything with the turbocharger?

Fuel consumption is alarming, and I've noticed a slight whistling sound, so I suspect the turbocharger. Could you elaborate on your experience? Any insights regarding the turbocharger or related components would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah, it was the turbocharger. Honestly, I wouldn't spend too much time troubleshooting it yourself. Take it to a workshop. They will sort it out quickly. You could keep messing around with it for days!

I appreciate your input and sharing your experience. A visit to a trusted workshop is the most prudent course of action. Turns out the diagnostic error was a glitch in the system which caused the cylinder pressure fluctuation. No repair necessary!
