Siena engine stalls at idle

Hello, I own a 2016 Fiat Siena diesel with 66996 km. Recently, I've noticed higher fuel consumption, and the engine stalls at idle. The check engine light is also on, and there's some smoke when accelerating. I suspect a defective mass air flow meter (LMM). Has anyone experienced this?

Summary of the thread

A 2016 Fiat Siena diesel owner is experiencing engine stalling at idle, increased fuel consumption, a check engine light, and smoke during acceleration. The suspected cause is a defective mass air flow (MAF) sensor. Another person with a similar issue suggests checking the air filter and recommends having the MAF sensor inspected by a workshop. The owner plans to follow this advice to resolve the problem.

Hey! I think I had a similar problem with my Siena. The check engine light was on, and the engine stuttered sometimes. Could be a sensor failure. Did you check the air filter?

Thanks for the quick reply! I haven't checked the air filter yet, but I was wondering if your issue was constant or intermittent like mine? I will check the air filter, though.

Mine was intermittent at first, then got worse pretty quickly. Check that air filter, but I think you should get the MAF sensor checked out by a workshop. Could save you some hassle!

Alright, thanks for the advice! I'll check the air filter and then take it to a workshop to get the MAF sensor diagnosed. It ended up costing me 365€, but at least it's fixed now.
