Honda City Hybrid Stalling Issue

My 2020 Honda City hybrid is acting up. The check engine light is on, it sometimes stalls at idle, and I got an error code about incorrect fuel composition. Mileage is 82153 km. Has anyone else seen this? I'm wondering if it's bad fuel, but I don't know where to start.

Summary of the thread

A 2020 Honda City hybrid is experiencing stalling issues at idle, with the check engine light on and an error code indicating incorrect fuel composition. The problem may be related to bad fuel, possibly from a recent fill-up at a new gas station. A similar issue was resolved by addressing a loose connection on a fuel sensor, suggesting that a mechanic should inspect the vehicle for any defective cables or plug connections.

Whoa, that's similar to what happened with my City (different year). Fuel quality problems can be a pain. Did you recently fill up at a new gas station or notice anything weird about the fuel itself – smell, color, anything like that?

Interesting! I filled up at a different station than usual last week. Didn't notice anything odd about the fuel, though. What was your experience exactly? Did you have the stalling issue too?

Yeah, the stalling was the worst part! Plus, the engine was knocking like crazy sometimes. I took it to a shop, and they found a loose connection on one of the fuel sensors or something. It cost a bit to diagnose, but the repair itself was simple. Honestly, I'd get it checked out before it gets worse. Could be a defective cable or plug connection of the component. I wouldn't continue driving like that.

Appreciate the insight! Sounds like a trip to the mechanic is in order. Your experience gives me a solid starting point. It was indeed a loose cable connection, just like you guessed. Cost me 95€ to fix, but at least it's sorted now. Thanks again!
