Seat Cordoba fuel sensor issue

Right, so my Seat Cordoba, build year , diesel engine, has thrown a proper wobbly. The check engine light is on, the engine stalls at idle which is terrifying at junctions, and I'm pretty sure it's the fuel level sensor because the error memory confirms it. Is this a common thing Anyone else had this fuel system nightmare

I had a similar issue with my old Fiat Punto. The car dashboard was showing all sorts of errors, and the fuel gauge was going crazy. Have you checked the wiring to the fuel system A faulty sensor could also cause the engine to stall. Is the error stored in the error memory related to the fuel sensor

Wiring, huh Where exactly should I be looking for that on the fuel system And this Fiat Punto, did it have similar symptoms, like the engine stalling at idle Was there a specific sensor fault code

Yes, the Punto had similar issues, including the engine stalling. The error code pointed to a fuel sensor malfunction. I would suggest taking it to a workshop. They can diagnose the fuel sensor problem properly and check for any other underlying issues.

Seat Cordoba issue resolved It was indeed the fuel sensor acting up. Turns out, a fuse was the culprit I replaced it, and the engine light is gone, no more stalling Total cost A mere 52€ Thanks for your help. You saved me a lot of worrying
