				hi all, been getting some smoke on start up , goes away once after a few mims, independent confirmed it looks like one possibly 2 injectors , maybe due to an old crude superchip remap. they are quite costly new . and not that cheaper second hand. do u thing warranty direct will cover,or only if car wont drive. labour gonna cost 150 or so and in theory best to replace all of them byt at 200plys each i think just the faulty one will do, then get a reputable remap.

				Ayat.... search Blo2was posts or pm him as he had to get new injectors a while back and iirc he found a place that exchanged old for new/refurbed for a decent price....maybe worth a look into especially at the price of new ones

				Although this is common for diesels to smoke on initial startup...

				Hi mate did you get anywhere with this?
Did warranty direct pay up?
thanks
