Matrix Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Issue

My 2014 Toyota Matrix with the gasoline engine is throwing me for a loop. I'm getting a check engine light, the engine stalls at idle sometimes, and it feels like I've lost power. I scanned it and it's showing a faulty rail pressure sensor signal. I'm guessing the pressure sensor is toast. Anyone else run into this?

Summary of the thread

A 2014 Toyota Matrix is experiencing issues such as a check engine light, engine stalling at idle, and power loss, with a diagnostic code indicating a faulty fuel rail pressure sensor. The problem is likely due to a malfunctioning pressure sensor, as confirmed by another owner who faced similar issues. The suggested solution is to replace the pressure sensor, preferably at a workshop due to the need for specific tools and expertise.

I had similar issues with my Matrix. Stalling, power loss, the whole shebang! Was it throwing any specific codes related to the fuel injection or just the general rail pressure?

It's giving me a P0087 code – Fuel Rail/System Pressure Too Low. Did yours do the same thing? And was it actually the pressure sensor, or something else causing it to freak out?

P0087 rings a bell! I messed around with mine for a bit, checking connections and stuff, but honestly, I ended up taking it to a shop. They confirmed it was the pressure sensor itself. It's not crazy expensive but you need the right tools to get access to the fuel rail. I paid around 240€ with labor and parts.

Thanks a lot for the info! Sounds like I'm headed to the workshop then. Appreciate you sharing your experience; saved me a ton of headache!
