P1 codes (make-specific)

P1xx codes mainly cover: fuel mixture, idle and throttle, egr valve. Our list has 105 codes in this range. 12 of them mean you shouldn't keep driving. Repairs cost roughly €10–2500, depending on the fault. The most common are P1000, P1081, P1083. Based on AI combined with our hands-on workshop experience and knowledge.

Want a definite answer?

Bring the car to our workshop in Estonia for diagnostics. We read the fault codes, test the sensors and tell you what is wrong. Repair price depends on the work involved, generally €45 per hour.
