![]() I find it highly unlikely that all 4 injectors are dead or dying. Even if 4 were playing up the car would still run with easy start unless the leakback was massive on all 4.
My injectors are at 120k and show absolutely no signs of dying, yet, by comparison, I've had every other fueling issue under the sun. A bosch specialist will refurb your injectors for around £85 to £100 each. |

![]() I am not in a position to argue with their expertise, but they said that they get 3 or 4 a year with this same problem. I guess they only get to see the ones that other garages cannot fix. As for Bosch specialists, I am not aware of any in my locale ![]() At the moment, I don't care how much it costs to repair, I just want her back!! 4 weeks is a long time to be without a mistress ![]()

![]() For all 4 injecters to fail at the same time sounds like a mis-fuel problem.....
you haven't put unleaded in by mistake have you .....?

Do you remember how much fuel you had in the tank and how much you added ? From my recent experience of mis-fueling, talking to the AA man that did mine, more then 5-10% contamination, is enough to do damage.
