Peugeot 2008 Engine Running Lean

Hi, I have a 2017 Peugeot 2008 (gasoline engine) with ~98k km. Lately, the engine seems to be running lean. I've noticed reduced power, the check engine light is on, and it runs rough, especially when accelerating. Could this be a defective injection valve?

Hey, I had similar symptoms with my 2008. Check engine light and all. Have you checked the EGR valve or considered a fuel injector issue? Could also be related to the intake manifold.

Thanks for the tip. Did you also experience jerking when accelerating? Was it definitely the fuel injectors in your case?

Yeah, jerking was definitely part of it. I'd say get it checked at a workshop; could be injectors but better to be sure. Ignoring it could cause more damage.

Thanks. I took it to the shop, and it was indeed the fuel injectors. Repair cost 515€. Appreciate the help!
