dave the rave Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 I have a 2008 Fiesta Ghia TDCI 1.4 Diesel. In May 2022 the car broke down and I had to replace Fuel injector no 4. I now have the same fault again.But I'm not sure which of the injectors are the problem this time. The bill for the last repair was £600. That was for a new injector fitted which cost £250. I only use the car for short local band gigs and in both of the breakdowns, I managed to limp the car home. I now have to decide whether to repair the car again or replace it. I think I would rather risk the repair for another £600 ( although with a cheaper refurbished injector) and hopefully keep the car going for another two years rather than scrapping it and buying another cheap car. Which may also have problems. So Forum members I would appreciate and welcome any advice that you may be able to give me. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 I'm struggling to understand how a garage can justify £350 labour to replace one injector. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny cj Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I had very similar problem While running the engine rattled I disconnected 1 injector at a time to see if the engine note changed..number 1 injector didn't make a difference..I did have a dead injector rather than a badly working one. Changed and eliminated the fault codes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
