hey guys, so im pretty sure i need a new injector... now do i need to recode the new one ? or will it be okay if i swapped it for like/like, i.e bosh for a bosh, it would be a referbed one, as long as i get the right one for the engine?

What engine, why so secret?

sorry i totaly forgot, im pretty sure its the asz

No coding but you need to reset the lash, how do you know it needs replacing?

okay cool cheers, and i have a misfire, not all the time but now and again, i plugged it into a diagnostic and it was pointing at a injector going,
"cyl.1 misfire Dectected"
Cylinder 1 pump/injector valve electrical error in circuit"
 

More likely to be the injector loom than the injector itself, also a much easier and cheaper repair. Always ask first, it's almost never the part mentioned in the diagnostic trouble code.

hmm you think??? i mean when its "cold" it runs fine, after driving it a while and the engine is warm it starts, missfiring, and shaking, untill i turn the car off for like 30 sec's then its fine again for a while?

Yes, I've been here a very long time, back in the PD's hey day injector loom failure was common, injector failure, very rare.

 

So...
