E53 diesel - idle dipping and fuel pressure issue

Recommended Posts

My trusty E53 diesel has developed an irregular idle and the odd stall with injector error. Will restart and run fine immediately afterward. On a trip from bop to wairarapa it did this 3 times each time after a stop, open road seems ok. I have inpa but it’s the German version so difficult to translate errors. I am planning to change fuel filter but on vid the fuel pressure spikes up not down so thinking maybe an injector(s)? Any ideas please.

Check injection quantity values, chances are one or two are on the piss. If you're very lucky a new set of injector seat washers will help, but typically you will need a new injector. 

Diesel alltech and turbo sell them for around $400-420 I think 

They're not too difficult to replace.
