Lexus LC hybrid engine stalls rough running

I'm having a real headache with my 2019 Lexus LC hybrid. The check engine light is on, the engine runs rough, and it even stalls sometimes when I'm idling. Plus, it feels like the car is jerking when I try to accelerate. Anyone else experienced something like this? I've checked the fuel cap, but it seems fine. Could it be something with the fuel system?

Interesting. I had similar symptoms with my LC. Check engine light, engine stalling… sound familiar? Did you check the fuel pressure sensor? It could be a defective cable or plug connection.

Fuel pressure sensor, huh? Where exactly is that located, and is it something I can easily check myself, or am I better off taking it to a mechanic?

Finding it yourself might be a bit tricky without the right tools and knowledge. However, if you're experiencing those symptoms, and considering what I went through, it's highly probable that's the culprit. My suggestion? Get it to a reputable workshop and have them diagnose the fuel pressure sensor connection. Save yourself the headache.

Thanks for the tip! Took it to the shop, and you were spot on – fuel pressure sensor cable was faulty. 95€ later, and it's running like a dream again. Appreciate the help!
