Good luck, they're a right dastard to shift. There are special pullers available to get them out, ask your local diesel specialist, they might loan you one.

thanks mike its my wifes car and im gettin mega earhole going to see a derv specialist tuesday its my last hope wish id never got the car hate italian engines

[Mike Pavelin]

It's commonrail injectors in general. Because they're a push fit, once the o rings start to weep crud buids up around them and they end up glued in. CocaCola is a good solvent for said gunge.

Another good solvent to use or so I've been told is CILLIT BANG kitchen grime remover.
