Hi

Recently removed the EGR valve to take a look at its condition and after taking off the air cleaner I could see oily wetness down in where the injectors sit (1 or 2 of them).

The car has 117k and symptoms are - has some juddering at low speed/slightly touching accelerator,

and exhaust fume smell when slow/stationary with blower on - Apart from this the car drives fine, no hissing sound, no exhaust smoke or diesel smell and getting about 59mpg on long mixed with short journeys

.

I have read a lot of posts about the injector seals and not sure whether to put new ones on soon or leave it as my car does not seem to be running as badly as others in these posts

Any experienced mechanics out there with advice?
