Injector faults and white smoke please help

Featured Replies

Hi everyone .. 1st time posting on here and I really hope somebody can help me out here . 

I’ve got a 2007 mk7 transit 110 with 150k on the clock .. my problems are as follows and just want to say thanks to anyone who can help me understand what’s going on with it .. 

 

Engine on tick over is shaking back and fourth

 

Misfiring 

 

White smoke from exhaust and if you take oil cap off it can be seen blow from there too🤔

 

My fault code is p02A8 ( cylinder 4 balance injector restricted )

 

I have brought 4 injectors from a running van and put into mine  all been programmed in and still getting the same fault code.. 

before that I had 2 recon injectors and put them in 2&4 but no change ...

my injector readings are 

 

  1.     -4.33 mg
  2.     16.42mg
  3.     -7.69mg
  4.     -4.40mg

I’ve changed injector 2 around but the high reading will always stay on cylinder 2 

Also if I unplug injector 4 the engine sound does not change at all , if I unplug injector 2 it will just die out .

 

Ive tried to take the egr off but one of the bolts has rounded and Just can not get a grip on it , I managed to get the top 2 off and the oil started dripping out the egr 😲

 

 

I’ve replaced pvr & srv but can not do a pilot learn or pump learn as it won’t let me on my Delphi diagnostic I think this is due to the rough running of the van 

I’ve also replaced air mass sensor ..

Does anyone think this could be a Ecu problem 

 

Really appreciate any help from anyone .. I need my van for work and just after Christmas moneys little tight .
