Hey, thanks for your quick reply! I have also observed exactly these symptoms. Do you happen to remember how much it cost to replace the fuel pump module? And were there any other problems after the repair, or has everything been running smoothly again since then? Thanks for your help!

Hey, no problem! I'm glad I can help. So, I had to shell out 640 euros to replace the fuel pump module. Not exactly cheap, but it sorted out all the problems. Since I visited the mechanic, the car has been running like clockwork again and the fuel pump fault was completely fixed. So you could look at that as a possible solution. I hope this helps you, let me know if anything is still unclear. All the best!

Hi, had a similar problem with my 2013 Peugeot 208, diesel with a little over 80,000 km. In my case, it was also the fuel pump module that was defective. Really annoying, the part caused similar symptoms to yours. I also had this black smoke and a stuttering engine. The mechanic told me it was a serious problem. Not immediately life threatening to the car, but something that definitely needs to be fixed to prevent further damage. Like you, the check engine light came on and the engine's performance diminished for me too. It was really frustrating. The guy at the garage replaced the module and the car ran perfectly again. Hope this helps you. All the best!
