Default Help stuck in the Alps

https://youtu.be/Nwi_Yp2lwxM

I need help desperately. I'm in the Alps and was booting it up a mountain.
Then engine stop light came on and it cut out.
Managed to get it towed to safety.
Checked timing belt.
Seems ok. Really bad knocking and lots of white smoke I guess it's unburned diesel.
Any ideas?

A couple of things to try in the meantime, check ALL fuses, disconnect battery and leave for few minutes and then reconnect etc.

Have you tried unplugging injectors one at a time, sounds awfully like an injectors gone bad.

Just saw the video, sounds like a rod or a follower is on it's last legs, don't run it any further.

Get proper eyes on it asap.

This could be a possibility. I guess it's ok to unplug one at a time, could it still leak? i know there is a tool to block it off.

Ok. Basically if I unplug the 2nd injector from the oil filler cap the engine starts and loud knocking disappears.
It still smokes a bit but nothing like it was. That is with it unplugged
Obviously it does a little rough on 4 cylinder s.
What to order for a replacement injector.
I will get a seal kit toPXL_20230101_145302217.jpgo.
