Pulled the cover off mine and had a look today. MY 2016, November 2015 build, seems to have the same injectors as Beery

Mine's an MY15 and it's got Siemens/Continental injectors. In the photo below you can just see Continental written on the cap of the injector.

Hi,
This thread is getting a bit old now but it seemed the best thread to post to.
I posted a couple of weeks back that I had a minor overheating problem see <Ultra gauge temperature reading>
MLD suggested an injector check and this was a good recommendation. (Thanks mate!)
The injectors were Denso.
All 4 injectors have failed an injector test.
The test sheets have the following categories :
Electrical, Flushing, Purge, TP1, TP2, TP3, TP4, TP5, TP6, Static Leak, NOP and Grading code. (Is TP short for Throttle Position?).
Injector 1 and 4 failed TP1 and TP2. (see attached sheet for injector 1)
Injector 2 and 3 failed TP1 only.
Now I've heard stories of injector failure causing burnt pistons.
My question is have I caught this issue early or should I get the pistons looked at to see if there is any damage?
Thanks
Kerry
P.S. The Land Rover dealer can get me Siemens injectors which according to this thread were fitted to later 2.2 engines.
*Siemens and VDO are owned by Continental so they are all Conti now.
*the 2.2 are prone to injector failures at round that 100K.
*2.2 injector failures are common in rangers, transits etc.
*I dont test them as the cost is better put towards new injectors.
*The obvious sign is the injectors rattle when cold.
*Well if it doesnt crack a piston, then its fine

also I would check prices, the genuine are round 1200 each, the VDO / Conti are half the price

Thanks Daz, for your regular pearls of wisdom.

not sure how you would inspect without taking head off, unless you can get a probe into the glow plug port, this is what i found when the head came off. a second piston had a smaller crack. My first engine (2.4) (the pic) went around 100,000 kms and i fitted an unknown history Transit 2.4 (long story and not the preferred path), at 180,000 kms the injectors were smokey as and just been replaced. No idea if i've done engine internal damage. No overheating so fingers crossed.
