Anyone not too far from Langley, Slough got a set of known good TD4 injectors I could borrow for a few days ?

I want to do a quick swap to prove whether ours are causing the grey smoke, before splashing out on a replacement set.

Happy to provide a deposit if required.

Good idea.

Hope you can find some to borrow.

You would be better off doing a leak back test, that should tell all you need, its a lot of work just to swap out all the injectors on an hope, also it may only be one injector.

Leak back after cleaning the injectors is here. I also tried each injector into a jar with high pressure line connected & no electrical connection. Definitely no leaks when injectors are not triggered & have idle fuel pressure into them. What I cannot test is excessive fuel flow when they are triggered normally.

We are trying to keep investigation cost down at the moment. Diesel Services Ltd in Uxbridge want £41 per injector just for testing. They also checked for parts availability for the 0445110130 and said that could be difficult. WT Diesel in Brentford, London seem to have a higher price for the 130 than the 049, but not spoke with them yet.

I’m not far from Langley and might be able to help. I’ve got a set of TD4 injectors that were working fine when pulled; you’re welcome to borrow them for testing. No need for a deposit, just look after them and let me know how it goes
