    Hi all,
    I bought a 08 diesel Astra 1.3 today . Bit of a smell from cab and what sounded like a leaky exhaust from the bottom of car. I dropped it into autofast fit said exhaust is fine and they took off cover on engine and one of the injectors is leaking pretty bad, can feel the air coming out around that area and black deposits obviously diesel fuel.He said it would need to be stripped down to see what it would cost and they don't do this type of work. Has anyone any ideas on how much this will cost will it be just an o-ring/seal or something more serious.can anyone recommend someone in Dublin also
    Thanks in advance
    Feel like **** after buying this 😀

    Hi I was just wondering how did you get on with getting the injector seal's done. Did you have to go to specialist and what was the price ?
