Hey Guys,

I'm getting Check Injection appear on my car nearly every time I start it, however if I drive for 5 minutes, stop the engine and open the car door till everything goes off and then start the car again, the little spanner goes and everything is going, whilst the service light is on with check injection, everything is running fine, what do people reckon it is, this has occured since I filled the car up with Shell V-Power Diesel?


Cheers

I've had check ignition before but only when i stalled it once ;)

you checked your spark plugs? tried some injector cleaner like redex?

shell v-power diesel hmmm - is yours a 1.9?

theres no spark plugs on a dci mate
not tried injector cleaner yet, wanted to see if it was potentially a fault with the glow plugs, as somebody have had same issue before and it turned out to be them, hence y it says injector fault il never know
yes its a 1.9 120bhp

Jimmy take it to reno, they'll sort it out under warranty. This has happened to me twice, cost me £50 when it was out of warranty. The injectors dont like the cold! sh1t!
