Talisman Stalling After Fuel Filter Change

I'm absolutely livid! My 2021 Renault Talisman with a gasoline engine is giving me grief. The check engine light is on, it stalls at idle, and the engine power is severely reduced. This started right after I changed the fuel filter. Could this be related to the pressure sensor on the fuel rail or the fuel regulator?

Whoa, sounds frustrating! I had a similar issue with my Talisman. Check engine light, engine misfire, the whole shebang. Did you happen to get any error entries after the fuel filter change? Could be a pressure sensor issue.

Error entries, you say? That's interesting! What kind of error entries did you get and was it definitely the pressure sensor? I'm trying to avoid ripping everything apart if I can help it.

Yeah, error entries pointing to the fuel pressure regulator. Honestly, I tried fiddling with it myself but ended up taking it to a workshop. They replaced the fuel pressure regulator, and it fixed everything. It might be worth getting it checked out by a professional.

Alright, I appreciate the insight! Turns out, it was the fuel pressure regulator. Cost me 45€ to replace, but at least the Talisman is running smoothly again. Thanks for the advice!
