BMW X2 Check Engine & Power Issues, Rail Sensor Help?

Hey there! I had a really similar issue with my 2018 BMW X3 last year. I've got some experience working on cars, but this one needed professional help. When my check engine light came on, I noticed the same symptoms, rough idle and terrible acceleration. Took it to my trusted workshop and they diagnosed a faulty fuel pressure sensor. Total repair cost was 240 Euro, which included the new sensor and labor. They had it fixed in about two hours. Based on your symptoms, it sounds very much like what I experienced. These sensors can act up on several BMW models, including the X2 and X4. Could you share your mileage and if you've had any other recent repairs done? This might help pinpoint if it's definitely the pressure sensor or something else. Hope this helps!

Thanks for sharing your experience! My X2 has 110507 KM on the clock, and I just had my regular service last month where they changed oil and filters. The symptoms you described match exactly what I'm experiencing. Good to know it was a relatively straightforward fix for you. I feel a bit more confident now heading to the workshop, at least I have a better idea of what to expect. The repair cost seems reasonable too. Will probably book an appointment this week and have them check the pressure sensor first.

Hey again! Yeah, that definitely sounds right, especially since you're seeing those symptoms right after a service. When I had my issue, it started showing up about 2-3 weeks after routine maintenance too. I remember being a bit worried at first, thinking something major was wrong. Just to follow up on my earlier repair experience, after they replaced the pressure sensor, my X3 has been running perfectly smooth for over a year now. No more stalling, no more power issues. The idle is stable as it should be. One thing I'd mention, make sure they check the wiring harness connected to the sensor while they're at it. In my case, they found some minor corrosion on the connectors, which they cleaned up during the repair. Didn't cost any extra but might have prevented future problems. 110K km is actually pretty similar to when mine started acting up (I was around 98K km). These sensors typically start showing their age around this mileage, so the timing makes sense. Let us know how it goes after the workshop visit!

Thanks so much for the additional details! That's really helpful to know about the wiring harness, I'll definitely ask them to check that too. It's actually quite reassuring to hear that yours started acting up around the same mileage and that it's been running great since the repair. Really appreciate you taking the time to share all this info. I've just called and booked an appointment for tomorrow morning, so I'll be sure to update the thread once I get it sorted. Fingers crossed it's just the sensor and nothing more serious! Thanks again for your help, it's made me feel a lot more confident about getting this fixed.
