Skoda Praktik Diesel Engine Trouble

My 2007 Skoda Praktik diesel is acting up. Check engine light is on, engine stalls at idle, and power is reduced. Suspect it's the fuel pressure regulator, maybe related to the recent fuel filter change. Anyone seen this before?

Sounds familiar. Had similar engine misfire and pressure drop issues with my old Renault Megane. Check engine light, stalling at idle... Could be the fuel rail pressure sensor or the regulator itself. Have you noticed a drop in fuel efficiency?

Fuel efficiency seems normal. How did you figure it out on the Megane?

Well, the symptoms were almost identical. Turns out the fuel regulator was faulty. I'd suggest getting it checked out at a workshop to confirm. Could save you some headaches diagnosing it yourself.

Yep, you were spot on. Faulty fuel pressure regulator. Replaced it for 45€. Runs like new. Thanks!
