Thanks for the quick reply! I haven't specifically checked the fuel pump connections yet. Where should I be looking for these connections, and is there anything specific I should look out for, like corrosion or loose wires?

It's difficult to pinpoint without a proper diagnostic. However, based on your symptoms and error codes, the fuel pump or its related wiring is a strong candidate. Given your level of expertise, I would advise taking it to a trusted workshop to have it properly diagnosed. The defective cable or plug connection of the component seems to be the likely cause.

Thanks for the advice! You were spot on. Took it to a mechanic, and it turned out to be a defective fuel pump cable connection. Repair cost me 95€.

Sounds frustrating! I have a 208 as well. I once experienced similar symptoms – engine stalling and the check engine light. Have you checked the fuel pump or its connections? It could be a simple issue like a faulty connection.
