Can someone recommend somewhere that can do diesel injector testing/refurbing in or around the LS26 area. Thats Leeds/Wakey/Cas or nearby.

My Volvo V70D5 is having cold start issues and doing my head in.

I've already had a chat to Wakefield Diesel Centre and they seem ok but always good to get a recommendation of someone.

Cheers.

Cheers mate.

I did find them and they quoted me £150 just to test the injectors.

Ended up taking it over to these chaps very early this morning.

They diagnosed a leaky number 2 injector (£78 for that!) They can recondition them for £110, 30 miles away though so really difficult for me to leave the car with them. Anyway, I've managed to source a recon injector from a place in Manchester. Delivered for £165 with £50 back for my injector. Has a 12month guarantee. Obviously means I have to fit it myself but seems easy enough, providinging it's not seized.
