Hi all , I have a problem with a 2005 2.0 tdi passat 140bhp engine code bkp. it stopped suddenly and wont start, we have traced it to no 1 enjector going to earth and shutting the engine down as when we disconnect the wire to no 1 it will start and run (all be it on 3 pots) .. anyway a new one from vw is a fortune and im struggling to find anything locally so wondered if there is anywhere that repairs them or does recon injectors for these?

thanks in advance for any input. Jeff

I think if you can find the cause, you just need to install it again.

It should get connected tightly, What makes the injector fallen off?...

thanks for the input, my injectors turned out to be siemans not bosch so could not be repaired, instead I had to bend down and touch my toes and pay the main dealer price o £380 plus vat for one injector furious
