Tucson cylinder pressure fluctuation

I've got a 2019 Hyundai Tucson diesel with almost 200k km on the clock and I'm seeing some weird stuff. The check engine light's on, fuel consumption is up, and it feels like I've lost power. Could this be a cylinder pressure fluctuation issue? Anyone seen this before?

Summary of the thread

A 2019 Hyundai Tucson diesel with nearly 200,000 km is experiencing a check engine light, increased fuel consumption, and reduced power, potentially due to cylinder pressure fluctuation. A suggestion was made to check for engine knocking or issues with the timing belt, as these could affect cylinder pressure. The problem was identified as a consequential error, which was resolved under warranty at a workshop.

I had similar symptoms with my Tucson. Higher fuel consumption and less engine power, does it sound familiar? Have you checked for engine knocking or maybe the timing belt?

Engine knocking? No, I haven't noticed anything like that. The timing belt was replaced not long ago, but could that really cause cylinder pressure to fluctuate? Is it a consequential error?

Yeah, it's worth checking out. I'm no expert, but my mechanic told me a bad timing belt can mess with all sorts of things. Best to get it checked properly at a workshop.

I took it to the shop, and turns out it was a consequential error, but it was all covered under warranty, so it didn't cost anything! Thanks for the advice!
