Fuel pressure sensor, eh? Where exactly IS that located? And how did you diagnose that? Did you have the same stalling issue at idle as well? 'Cause this thing is driving me nuts! It's almost like I need to get out and push!

Yep, stalling at idle was part of the fun. Honestly? I poked around a bit, checked the connections I could see, and then threw in the towel and took it to a workshop. Best thing to do is get the error codes read, and they should lead you right to it. Fuel system problems can be tricky, so don't play with fire.

Thanks a lot! I had the error codes read, and it was indeed the fuel pressure sensor cable! 95€ later, and she's running like a charm again. You saved me hours of frustration! Cheers!

Sounds familiar. I had similar jerking on acceleration with my Scenic (diesel too). Turned out to be a dodgy fuel pressure sensor. Check the cable and plug connection first – sometimes it's just a bad contact. It's like a loose wire on a lamp – easy fix if that's it!
