so, I noticed this morning a very slight vibration from my usually silky smooth td6. Immediately im suspecting the injector harness as the fault.

I turned on the IID tool and found the cyl 1 and 2 were not being normal in the fuel rates at idle, then #2 began to flick between normal and abnormal depending on direction i was turning and bumps etc.

anyone had experience with replacing (I have exposed previously and know it wont be difficult) and where was their source for a new harness?

Pic shows abnormal values...slightly blurry, my bad

After shopping around on the net, i didnt want to pay over $250 for a used let alone new harness...obviously. I started at looking at getting plug etc and making one.

I decided to see what the ULR could get one in for, i have had luck in the past with some bits being cheap and some not so.

for a total price including next day delivery to my house....$97

check back tomorrow for more updates.

I have done two now.

they are fairly cheap - last one I bought was $75!

quick and easy to fit. Mine have gone brittle around the plugs. Runs like a bucket of bolts when they go bad.

Hmm, i put it in this morning, hey presto all good....for about 150kms...

I have read some other people have had bad ones out of the box after short periods, ill have to look into this more tho.

All sorted!

Replace #1 injector with a very very cheap BMW one off fleebay
I was expecting this "flow tested" one to be a waste of money...but 3 for $80, it was worth a crack.

Also, bmw ones fit no problem as expected.
