Peugeot 208 diesel injector fault

Hello, I have a 2022 Peugeot 208 diesel. I'm experiencing a 'Reset quantity drift compensation' error. The engine runs rough, the check engine light is on, and the error is stored in the error memory. Could a defective injection valve or injector be the issue? I read online that performance tuning or problems with onboard diagnostics could be related. The car has 290251 km. Should I try a system reset or some reset procedure?

Hey, that sounds rough! I had a similar issue with my old Renault Megane. Rough running, engine light, the whole shebang! Could also impact your fuel economy. Is the error consistent, or does it come and go?

Thanks for the reply! The error is consistent, unfortunately. It doesn't disappear after restarting the engine. What exactly was the issue with your Megane? Did it also point to the fuel injectors?

Yeah, mine was consistent too. Turned out to be a faulty injector. I tried a fuel system reset as one of the forums suggested but that didn't fix it. In the end, it needed a new injector. I'd recommend getting it checked at a workshop.

Thanks for sharing your experience! I took it to the workshop, and it was indeed a defective injector. The repair cost 515€.
