Nemo Intermittent Starting and Fuel Issues
Summary of the thread
A 2013 Citroen Nemo diesel is experiencing intermittent starting issues, stalling at idle, rough running, increased fuel consumption, and a check engine light, with an error code pointing to the fuel pump. Possible causes include a faulty fuel pump relay or bad connections to the fuel pump. Suggested solutions involve checking the fuel pump relay and connections, with a recommendation to have the vehicle professionally inspected if these initial checks do not resolve the issue.

Thanks for the suggestion! Were your symptoms identical, and did replacing the relay fix it? What other diagnostic steps did you take?

My symptoms weren't exactly the same, but close enough that it's worth a look. Replacing the relay didn't fix it for me, unfortunately. I ended up taking it to a workshop, and they found a bad connection to the fuel pump. It cost me 95€ to fix. Maybe just get it checked professionally.

Thanks for your help! Based on your experience, I'll get the fuel pump connections checked at a workshop. The projected repair cost aligns with my expectations, and I hope for a quick fix.

That sounds frustrating! I had something similar with my Nemo. Did you check the fuel pump relay? Sometimes a faulty relay can cause intermittent issues like that. It's cheap and easy to rule out before replacing the whole pump. Has it been checked already?
