V50 Engine 2.0D : Bent rods?

[Bloders2]

its not egr fault. if it was you would not get the irregular running, as egr fault would affect all 4 cylinders together.

my money remains with valves, injectors or a con rod.

I have another question - Can you use restored injectors? Cause i been told that Siemens injectors can't be restored. And also when i was taking injectors out, i noticed that One injector was continetals. Dont they need to be the same?

[Bloders2]

i have been told they cannot be remanufactured.
however, Euro car parts sell reconditioned injectors, which is what i used.

Thanks for info
What does reconditioned means? If that means restored then sorry
And for you, how much mileage you have put on these injectors? Any faults?

i guess restored means remanufactured.
came with 12 months waranty. only fitted them a couple of weeks ago but no issues yet

i had a thought about this...
your injector tests, which they have borderline failed in some tests, woudl be done in a warm room, using warm fuel. Your car runs fine when warm.
it is quite feasable that when cold they will be much worse.#

similarly the old peugeots had a habit occasionally of the valve gaps tightening up to the point they would not start when cold but were fine when warm. However, they didnt smoke like yours.

and there is the sound, that tick-tick-tick is only when temp outside is arround -2
