Thanks for the suggestion. I haven't seen any fuel leakage, but what exactly happened with your Peugeot? Did the engine stall often, and did the codes also point to fuel mixture problems?

Yeah, the Peugeot stalled a few times, mostly when it was cold. And the codes were all over the place, pointing to fuel and air mixture problems. In the end, I took it to a workshop, and they sorted it out. Probably best to get it checked professionally, especially with those error codes.

I appreciate your insight. I'll book an appointment with a technician to check it out. The repair was 95€. Thanks again.

Sounds frustrating. I had a similar issue with my old Peugeot, although it was a diesel. Engine management light kept popping up and the car felt jerky. Have you checked for any obvious fuel leaks or tried a fuel system cleaner? Might be worth a shot before diving deeper.
