Title: 2.2d Injector removal question.
Post by: SteveAWD on April 28, 2023, 09:28:06 am

As the engine/gearbox page has gone all but very quiet, I thought I'd post this question on here.

 Has anyone who has removed the 2.2d skyactive fuel injectors had any big issues removing them? I want to take the top off my engine to check the exhaust cam for wear. I've heard from one guy who says they are a problem coming out but then, I've seen a lot of videos online where there hasn't been any problems. Thanks.

I am in the process of changing the head gasket on my daughters CX5 diesel and 3 of the injectors came out OK but the 4th one was a bit tight. Managed to remove it with the use of a large screwdriver levering up beneath the injector holder. Beware when you are refitting the injectors as the holders are made from sintered metal and break VERY easily. Make sure they are level and torque up to no more than 9NM. If they break they are £100 each to replace-guess how I know!!
