Peugeot 301 rough running and stalling

Blast it all! My 2018 Peugeot 301, gasoline engine, is acting up. Check engine light is on, running rough, stalls at idle, and jerks when accelerating! Mileage is at 272719 km. Suspect it's the fuel pressure sensor, maybe a dodgy cable connection? Anyone else seen this before?

I also have a 301, and your problem rings a bell. A while back, I experienced almost exactly the same symptoms. Have you checked the sensor plug for corrosion or damage? In my case the wire was loose.

Thanks! That gives me hope. Could you perhaps give me more details? Was the wire loose on the sensor itself or further down the line?

Indeed, the wire was loose on the sensor itself. Unfortunately, I couldn't fix it. I recommend a good mechanic.

Thanks a bunch! I took your advice and had the car looked at. You were right; it was the fuel pressure sensor cable! Workshop repaired it. Cost me 95€. Runs perfectly now!
