Robbie it's for a full in depth test with a print out. www.electro-diesel.co.uk
He asked the identification of the injectors , but I didn't know , do they have a specific code etc ? -------------------------------------------------

£30 for a full injector test is about right.
Have had this in the past, all 6 have passed all tests, but upon a further stripdown and inspection, the nozzles were badly.worn causing poor idle and difficult starting
May or may not be the issue with yours, but something to be aware of My D3 Build Thread

What's wrong with your injectors?
I believe my starting issue is down to one weeping when the cars not running so curious how you go with this.
Will you get then reconditioned or get new ones?In loving memory of FA54WSK.
Rest well old friend, your work is done.

Same issues as Disco_Mikey, poor starting & idle. 3 injectors worn/damaged & contaminated with debris from in Tank Pump breaking up. Debris so small had worked through the in line filter. Vehicle done 115K miles. Used Malvern Diesel for work. They advised they had had a number of D3 presenting with this problem. Engine now much smoother running and fuel consumption improved.

Are injectors coded to the car or can you drop in any set?In loving memory of FA54WSK.

Drop in any set, and the car will begin to relearn itself. Takes around 25-30 miles to make any differenceMy D3 Build Thread

There is a special tool / puller available to remove them.
I borrowed a Land Rover specific tool (came with a chap who had done them before!) but there must be generic cheap tool that does the job equally well.

They normally pull out fine with your hand unless you've had a leaking one ie blow by and carbon build up around the injector body in which case you can make a little slide hammer out of an old injector pipe Wanted D4s non runners pm for competitive price.
