Seat Ateca Diesel Fuel System Problem
Summary of the thread
The 2016 Seat Ateca diesel is experiencing fuel system issues, including starting problems, stalling at idle, rough running, and increased fuel consumption, with the check engine light on. The error memory suggests a fuel pump issue, potentially caused by a defective cable or plug connection. A similar case confirmed that these symptoms were resolved by addressing a defective fuel pump cable or plug connection, which was diagnosed and repaired at a workshop.

Interesting. Did you experience stalling or higher fuel consumption too? What was the fix?

Yes, those were my symptoms too. Given the error code and symptoms, I'd strongly suspect the fuel pump. I suggest a workshop visit for a proper diagnostic.

Thanks for the input. The automotive diagnosis confirmed a defective fuel pump cable or plug connection. The auto repair cost 95€.

I had similar car performance issues with my Ateca. Check engine light was on and rough engine running. Was it pump failure?
