Hi Folks,

Just a quick question? I have a faulty fuel injector in my 407, can I do any driving in it or will this do serious damage to the car?

Thanking you in advance

What's the actual fault?

Got a de-pollution system faulty warning and then dropped it down to a garage to have a look. After that all I know is that one of the fuel injectors isn't working and needs to be replaced! After that I'm none the wiser to any specifics im afraid so thats probably no good to you.

ok so 2 faults coming up dont ask me what exactly what they said but in laymans terms its saying the injector is either not opening and or not closing if thats right?! but its not saying exactly which one is happening. so its either staying closed or staying open or else its not in sync. at least thats what i gather.

Does that make sense to anyone?

What engine is in your car?
To be honest injectors don't give must bother, its a strange one.

Ok petrol. Well the injectors definitely don't give trouble on that engine.
Coil packs do though. Did you get that checked?
