Yeah, fuel efficiency seems a bit off, come to think of it. What could that mean for the EVAP system, and is it a big deal to fix?

Reduced fuel efficiency combined with the check engine light and stalling points towards a potential issue with your fuel tank ventilation and the EVAP system. I recommend a visit to a workshop; it is indeed often caused by a defective charcoal filter.

Thanks! I took it to the shop, and you were spot on. It was a defective activated charcoal filter, causing the fuel tank ventilation problem. Cost me 275€ to fix, but at least it's running smoothly now!

Check engine light and stalling? It could be many things. Have you noticed any changes in your fuel efficiency?
