Default Injector cleaning

On my 2.0d V70 it's beginning to get more smokey. Going to strip down each injector and clean them.
Has anyone else done this? The smoke is white/grey and black. Hard to tell sometimes though. I've used no oil or coolant. I removed the egr and cleaned that so injectors are next on the hit list.

Also need to find my kangaroo boost problem too.... Only noticed this after fitting a new coolant temp sensor so must have done something to a pipe/connector.

Have a look on youtube for videos - I've stripped in injectors down before and cleaned them and it was actually quite easy - but you need a ultra clean work bench, magnifying glass and good light.

The ones I did were Bosch ones, I think they're siemens on the 2.0d but likely similar.

Might be worth buying a second hand one to practice on first and source of parts...

I've got a spare that's I've opened and cleaned previous but I like assurance and tips ect. Might have to wait till during the week now as I've measures the seals I've got and there not the correct size for some reason. Just ordered a timing belt kit so collect that and for that tomorw along side a crankshaft seal.

Thanks again.

I thought the DPF caught everything so never understand how dirty injectors can produce sooty exhaust on a modern diesel.

Many V50 2.0D E4 models (with manual gearbox) didn't have a DPF. Thank the Lord....

Neither does a 1970s Land Rover. I thought this thread was about a
2009 V70 2.0D?
