Injector problem

Afternoon all.

Having just got my iid working I have had a look at the live data for the injectors with the car warm to see if I can find out why I have rough idle. Now I'm no expert but reading a few threads on the subject it would seem the average is around 1000. Well mine are miles out. What do you guys suggest I do next ?

Bow down just the guy I was hoping for a reply off. Thank you mikey. Would I be correct in saying injector one is drivers side front injector ?

I've done a bit of ringing around (Bearmach) and they told me an "oem" quality injector was £233+vat

Are they Siemens or Bosch injectors on the euro 4 engine ? A company in Cardiff called fuel injection services say they can repair these injectors, what are people's thoughts ?

Is it worth buying a tested second hand one or stay away ?

Those people did my brother in law's TD5 twice before they got it right but said each time they were within the parameters so you can draw your own conclusions Thumbs Up

That's one of the things that makes this site so good ! The feedback you get about something that saves some of us making the same mistakes !

Thanks for the info geoffsnook I'll give them a wide berth. I just find the price of injectors a bit shocking for new. I'm the sort of person who would wonder if just changing 1 for new is good economy. Whereas 6 practically costs as much as the cars worth.

Its a lot of money for refurbed ones from them as well i am sure it was about £800 for the five of them which is cheaper than new but you know with new what you have

Very true. I'm wondering whether to try a tested second hand one for now and then look at a full set further down the line.
