Chammers.
Apparently my indie didn't have any problems removing my duff injector so hopefully yours will come out easily also.
Keep us informed on the outcome.

My car is now in it's 18th day in the garage and still has problems, I don't understand all this stuff so can only repeat what I think I have been told - the computer initially suggested a problem with cylinder 4, the injector was subsequently replaced. That did not fix the issue and the computer is now indicating failures on 2 other cylinders. My local jaguar dealer has sought the opinions of higher powers at the factory. They suggested that all the electrical connections were checked - this was done, but still a problem. The issue has now been addressed back to the factory and their latest advice is awaited. I Hope this makes sense, it is just my interpretation of what I have been told?

My experience to date...

Injector 1 failed open about 2 years ago.
Injectors 4 & 5 were stuck in the head when the engine was replaced under warranty recently, due to a thrown shell bearing, so had to be replaced.
Injector 2 failed open 5 days after getting the car back with the new engine.
Injector 3 replaced at same time as hairline crack noticed.

Currently considering if to get injector 6 replaced!!

Some folks on the US forum swear by an annual dose of BG44K to keep the injectors clean.
