Skoda Superb Hybrid Stalling Issue

My 2021 Skoda Superb hybrid is giving me grief. Keeps stalling, especially when idling. The check engine light's on, and it's running rough. Plus, fuel consumption seems higher than usual. I scanned it, and it's showing a fuel pump error. Could a dodgy cable or plug connection to the pump really cause all this?

Sounds rough. Had something similar happen with my old Vauxhall Corsa, though it wasn't a hybrid. Check engine light, stalling... nightmare. Could it be the fuel injector?

Fuel injector, eh? Interesting. You reckon a bad connection could mess with the fuel pump itself? How did you figure out it was the connection?

Well, in my case, the connection was loose and corroded. It messed with the fuel supply, causing all sorts of problems. If the error code points to the fuel pump, and you suspect a connection issue, it's worth checking. But honestly, I'd take it to a workshop. Fuel system issues can affect car performance, and it's better to be safe than sorry.

Turns out you were spot on. Took it to the shop, and it was indeed a faulty connection to the fuel pump. 95€ later, and she's purring like a kitten again. Thanks for the help.
