As above.
Sticky injector on the Doblo - feels very rough when starting from cold, sometimes feels it's running on three.
DPF & glowplugs fine.
Have tried Miller's & an Italian tune up, but no joy so far.
Any recommendations for something that actually works?
Ta in advance.
used forte stuff on fiesta worked really well. apparently its one that a lot of mot places use but cant remember where that info came from. not cheap from memory

Some trade stuff was recommended on an old thread of mine, take a gander [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/focus-diesel-running-rough ]here.[/url] I didn't actually try it but the poster seemed genuinely impressed with it
Brother in law is a mechanic. Successful own business.
Swears by forte stuff. It's the only stuff he will use.
Which engine ? Doesnt have one of the stupid wax stats does it ? Not sure if the jtd has one but the non turbo does - crap things - give similar symptoms
It's a 1.3 Multijet.
Just had a full main dealer service.
It had an injector under warranty a few years ago.
Will try some of the Forte stuff and see how it goes - thanks folks.
You sure it's sticky and not just broken? Personally never noticed any difference ever with injector cleaners be they for petrol or diesel. There's enough cleaners and lubes in normal fuel for it never to be an issue unless you leave the vehicle for long periods (and even then I'd be skeptical, having done so many many times for 12 months+ with no ill effects). That said, if these have a particular weakness it could be the case.
Well, the fault is intermittent at the mo - runs fine for a while then goes again.
I hope it's not broken, they cost a bloody fortune.
Stanadynes not bad at all
Diesel rhinos is a firm favorite in the vw t4 world. Can only be bought on line though, but definitely made a difference to our camper. Have a search on the vwt4 forum.

BG244 is very good stuff
Just had a full main dealer service.
Take it back, then. "You've just serviced this and now it's running like crap."
