...smoking 2002 V70 2.4 D5 - injectors??
My faithful & sprightly V70 has started smoking at 230K miles. There was a split in the rubber turbo air inlet that I've replaced & checked for leaks. I've also replaced air & fuel filters.
I mostly do motorways miles & it seems to plateau & smoke like a smoke grenade is tied to the rear bummer between 60-65mph in 5th. At 70mph its a lot cleaner but smokes on acceleration, the faster (++) I go the cleaner it gets if you hear what I'm saying. I'm assuming at 230K its likely to be worn injectors so... 1. Where/how can I test injectors (based in Stafford & S/E London) 2. Can I replace indivuals or does it have to be all 5. 3. Given the age & value of the car are there any other tricks to consider... Thank you! |

It is most likely an air leak , have you checked the intercooler ?

No - not yet. What am I looking for - is it similar to the split in the turbo intake hose, just around the intercoooler unit?
Are they prone to going in a particular position or area? |

if you have a code reader that can read the fuel correction you will get an idea of what condition the injectors are in. Vida dice is best for this. But as said I would be looking at the intercooler.
You can replace injectors individually but if more than 2 or 3 are required they need to either be of the same class or the ECM will need to be programmed.

you cant see much of the intercooler but signs are black oil mist around the radiators , and looking from underneath with the trays removed the bottom row bending down and likewise the top row bending up ... The proper way is to pressurise the intake with smoke , your dealer could do this for a small fee no doubt . saves a lot of time ..
