    I've had the same problem with my 2009 '59' fiesta. The smell of diesel fumes was blowing from my air vents. The problem I had was with the first injector. When I came home all I saw was smoke coming from the bonnet, I took it to ford as my car was still under warranty. I heard it cost around £900 to repair it :/ bit pricey for a common fault.

    Hi Dave,Many Thanks for replying to me,A Mate in the local ATS garage said he believed it was the Injectors,but it was such a sod of a job,you needed to know which had gone,There is no smoke,and no smell when the blower is switched off,but its a nuisance when you cannot have the Heater on,even stopping at a Junction,Once again Dave,Many Thanks Mate

    its a common fault on the 1.4, you do not have to replace the injectors just the seals and a local independent garage should be able to do the job for between £300 - £400.
