After a spell of Lexia diagnostics provided few clues to why my Berlingo is running poorly (misfiring), we did a leak-off test to measure whether any injector was passing more/less fuel than the others. Let me know your thoughts in the comments. I'm sorry this one doesn't hang together very well but would appreciate your feedback.

I agree with the other comments - if the problem went away when you were returning to the bottles, not the main pipework, maybe that is the problem. Try to replicate the issue - connect your bleed off lines back up, if she starts to misfire again, reconnect them to the bottles, if the misfire goes away again, well, it does really point directly to your bleed off lines being plugged somewhere. Being able to replicate the issue by doing the same thing is such a big help when trying to workout what is wrong.

Ok, i don't think your leak off levels are indicating anything particularly bad, however alarm bells rang when you said it was no longer misfiring with the kit attached. At this point I would be checking the fuel return line(s) all the way back for blockages or kinks etc as it could well be excessive back pressure in the return that is causing your problems.

interesting that Bella didn`t misfire at all once the test kit was installed, this would lead me to think that the return pipes could be the issue, so I`d put her back together & drive her home, then, if the issues return, I`d replace all the return pipes, then if that doesn`t solve it, move onto the injectors, as pipe is a lot cheaper & easier to change than 4 injectors (why just replace 2 when all 4 are the same age?). Also, you overlooked checking to see if there was still air in that filter pipe when the kit was fitted, if there wasn`t, then it`s a return pipe issue, so my 1st port of call would be to change the return pipes & take it from there. Do the simple/easy stuff first. :)

Interesting results in the test when it stopped misfiring. I do remember my first car (1982 Mazda 323) had misfire at one point in winter time, when it was getting warm. It never stalled the engine, just started misfiring, didn't even rev the engine for a while,, but after a while running at idle, that "misfiring seizure" went away, so could continue driving. It had the old school mechanical contact point ignition with capacitor / condenser, and indeed replacing the capacitor fixed the problem, after trying all the other ignition components first, adjusting timing etc. :D Next Mazda (1990 323) had electronic ignition, but when the ignition module fried, the car died immediatly on the road as the faulty module killed the spark with it.

Going back in what passes for my memory, I think we had a special tool like a slide hammer for removing injectors. Yes, they do get very tight! Sometimes a little bit of blow by occurs, so you get black goo that solidifies! A trick we used to try was to fill the fuel filter with diesel injector cleaner, then run the engine. Might work?? Hope you get Bella sorted. PS the fuel cleaner trick won't help get them out, just might clean them enough to improve the running

Lexia is a good tool and gives you a lot of information if you know how to process it even in diesel injection and spill flows. Not had anything to do with the 2ltre model 1.4hdi 1.6hdi but even some fuel filters I have fitted I check all the drain plugs and fixings as they cause faults. Just think it's new out the box doesn't say its ready for fitting. I wonder if you have a damaged crushed return line back to the tank or a clog Only way is to find the main return and check and blow it through or pipe a return into a separate vessel. And go for a road test

I put off removing the injectors from my Mk2 scirocco for YEARS, and just decided to live with some hot starting issues - bigger battery so it could crank for ages! 1.8 8v kjet engine, which are notoriously difficult injectors to get out, various homemade tools for the job and tales of woe on the forums. Eventually for other reasons I decided to go down the engine swap route, had to remove the injection system before hauling the engine out. To my amazement/horror they came out with such a tiny amount of leverage (maybe shrunk seals were the cause of my issues...) but I'd hyped it up so much in my head before even trying it. IMO, maybe there's no harm giving them a half hearted go? When it gets to the point where you're applying "I could damage this" force, time to stop and rethink. Though from the comments it looks like you might not have to take them out after all! Good luck, and hopefully the Berlingo is back up and running smoothly soon.

Interesting comments below. Also noticed that there seemed to be a bit of air bubbling through #1. It might have been the vibration causing the bubbling, so I'd suggest checking the footage and poss re-running the test, but bubbles might indicate air being drawn into the fuel system. Unsure about the Belingo's system but quite a lot of diesels draw fuel from the tank through the filter using the fuel pump, (esp indirect injection) at a rate determined by engine speed with the fuel use determined by engine load and pedal position. The excess is returned to the tank at ~atmospheric pressure. All in all, air in the fuel draw side causes probs and misfires. Blockages in the return, I think, are less likely to cause these. All the fuel ‘pull’ system is quite sensitive to filter restrictions (whether tank pick up or nearer the pump) and tank breather, too. Don’t forget this! Bleed off and return might be related but I’d want to check for and eliminate air pull-problems first. If you think you have return blockages, blow through the pipes with your air-line and look for kinks, too. Finally, I wonder if the scan software might have been able to log live data for the injectors, not just scan for codes. Plenty of cars etc from this era had the ability to log fuel pressure at the injector, fuel metering by the injector and a variety of other things such as expected and observed pressures and the like. It can be hugely useful to see the live logging data at idle and while under load, esp at constant speed in gear to look for anomalies etc. Good luck!!

A well worth test - based on my experience of doing a leak off test all 4 injectors are behaving the same in terms of leak off - No 4 did leak a tiny bit more over the duration of the test but no 2 injectors that have covered a decent mileage will/should leak exactly the same - to put this in perspective my car leaked off at a massive rate - 15 seconds and most were over filling - the engine ran perfectly, just smoked a lot on a cold engine - on my car the injectors were a more modern design that exhibit different symptoms than on the Berlingo. Bear in mind that if the leak off rate is small as is the case on your test the high pressure fuel pump will more than be able to sustain adequate pressure on the fuel rail - as others have posted if disconnecting the leak off return pipes during the test cured the problem then look there - if the engine starts and idles fine on hot/cold then the injectors themselves are likely to be fine - at this stage of investigation - If the engine does not produce smoke on idle or under load etc. then I would suspect the afore mentioned or the high pressure fuel pump is not delivering the required volume of fuel to the injectors at certain engine speed / LOAD. There may be a governor system in the pump - I don't have knowledge of high pressure fuel pumps but I would be looking at getting it assessed - Lets get a move on as its camping season - get the pump off and get it looked at

Before looking at injectors I would check there are no air leaks in the supply fuel line, often the primer bulb can leak air into the system particularly at the joints. Also fuel returning to the tank too easily via the in tank sender unit can be an issue, I think there is a rubber valve at the end of the return line that should only let fuel back into the tank under enough pressure.

I’m not massively convinced you have a particularly bad injector. Usually they are either good or bad and bad ones do tend to be bad bad. If you do pull the injectors replacing the seals is a given. If you do this regularly then you should get no blow by issues and this no stuck injectors. It would be interesting to monitor the live data for the injector pulses side by side as I have known intermittent wire breaks on these looms cause issues. This would clearly show if you got a scope on it. Picoscope is a good tool for this.

I used to have a PSA van, with a weird fault very much like this. Mechanic, in a main dealer workshop, told me problems with wiring are quite common.

As mentioned by the other chap, if the problem seemed to go away on the first leak-off test but then came back, it could well be wiring. Try a 'wiggle test' - ask Miss H. to hold it at an rpm which recreates the fault, then wiggle wiring looms and connectors to see if it comes and goes. Could be a simple fix.

It could mean 1 2 3 are bleeding off more of the air in the system than no4 even though 4 is actually 1 because french. For the purposes of this discussion though 4 in closest to the gearbox. I would try to have a proper fuel pressure test done before doing anything else. The diesel pump should be pretty easy on this cara since it doesntrequire any timing supposedly. They might be an injector problem to but I am pretty sure seals in the pump are perished and it dras in more air the more you work the engine hence it misfires when you are actually loading it by moving it rather than just reving on idle. Confirm everything before the injectors is working and air tight before touching the injectors. Injectors will set codes the pump will probably not.

A worn throttle potentiometer can cause mis-fire flat spot issue, however I am not sure that Berlingo's are fly by wire. Spill return IS an exact science, Ian, you time the run each tube has calibration marks. Put lots of WD40 around injectors, run engine to hot, put more WD40 on injectors, run again. Then remove injectors. you could scope the Injectors, make sure they are getting PWM equally.

If its a "common rail" diesel the engine may go into limp mode if the pressure in the rail drops below a certain amount. Pressure loss is caused by leaky injectors. There is normally one injector that can fill a coke bottle in a very short time but your injectors are roughly the same. It suggests they are either all reasonable or all knackered. I dont think replacing number 3 and 4 injectors will solve the problem. By the way, on most common rail engines there is a sensor which records the pressure and this can be read via the OBD. If the pressure is below minimum this would suggest all the injectors are worn but if the pressure is within limits (and given the results of your leak off test) this would suggest that all of your injectors are OK. Hope this helps and best of luck

The return test should be performed at idle and you should find about 22ml in 3minutes. With the diagnosis tool you can also check the parameters for the injectors correction but also fuel and air pressure, air flow, you should be able to find something wrong. A compression test could help also as some of the 2.0HDi could drop the valves seats

A couple of weeks ago the check engine light came on in my 2014 GLK250 Bluetec and it seemed a little low on power. A couple of days later it started emitting a howling sound, but only under acceleration. The culprit turned out to be a split in one of the pipes that carry air from the intercooler to the engine. Thing is, once the pipe was replaced, the engine started throwing codes for the MAFS. With a new MAFS installed, it started throwing more strange codes. My mechanic reinstalled the original MAFS which didn't eliminate any of the new codes. At this point we both (mechanic and I) agreed that the car needed to go to the dealer. Appointment made, I went to pick up my car. As I was still in the mechanic's yard with the engine running, the check engine turned off and hasn't turned back on. The car is now running perfectly. I still kept the dealer appointment because there's also a recall that needs to be performed. Anyway, this story of woes is just a reminder that cars can sometimes surprise us with unexpected issues with unexpected causes. Good luck to you, I'm pretty sure that whatever it turns out to be, you will be surprised.

Apart from the leak off return being blocked or restricted somewhere, you really should try and find where the air is getting into the fuel feed, that air causes fueling problems, misfires and bad running. The problem is the air could be entering from anywhere from the tank pick up to the fuel filter. Car on a ramp and a careful look for damp patches on the fuel lines can help spot problems.

I'm no diesel expert, but the variation between cylinders doesn't seem that extreme, given that Bella's an old engine anyway and won't be perfect. The fact that the misfire disappeared with the leak-off test-kit in place suggests that the problem lies in the return circuit and not with the injectors themselves. I'd certainly look at the leak-off system before spending time and money wrestling the injectors out.

Hi, seen this issue many times including on my own vehicle. Its simply either 3 things, the glow plugs or the egr or fuel rail sensor, first what I would do is buy some dpf cleaner the 5 litre one then put it in a pressure spray nozzle and squirt 2 litres of it through the air intake whilst somebody is revving the berlingo at 2000 rmp which will clean the egr which would 99 percent fix the issue as the egr is getting stuck from the carbon deposits. if this doesn't work then put a new fuel rail sensor on it and if that doesn't work then try the glow plugs.

if the car runs ok with the leak off tester installed then you need to look at the fuel return, the solenoid on common rail injectors actually controls the fuel leaving through the leak off port, changes the differential pressure etc, so anything blocking that fuel will change the way the injector work, perhaps the timing. the fact that it runs well with the tool fitted means you need investigate. I would start by either feeding the return pipe straight back into the tank through the filler or into a can under the bonnet. take it for a drive and see if the issue has gone. if that works then you need to blow out the return line or / and examine it very well, perhaps change it.

Modern common rail diesels are pretty complex, and if the service items are OK, then the only sensible option is to find a diesel specialist and have a proper diagnosis carried out.

My diesel Mondeo had injector problems. Diagnostics said number 3 was the problem so i had it sorted and about 3 months later it happened again. Apparently they work in pairs so i had to have 3 and 1 done and then it was fine but i was a lot of money out of pocket! Not sure if this is true for the Berlingo too.

this is probably unlikely but... Something that might be worth checking out... Capacitors inside the ECU. I know a lot of Ford's and stuff have issues with electrolytic capacitors going open circuit and leaking physically inside the ECU, and that apparently causes misfires, not going into open loop, etc etc. Although that mostly applies to their old gasoline engines, so I doubt it would be this issue but just a thought that struck me while watching...I have no idea how these Berlingo ECU's are constructed but they are coming up in age aswell, so it could be something like that, just a thought! It is very interesting that the misfire stopped for a moment when you were using the measurement kit - perhaps it is a return line issue? Best Wishes from Sweden!

Citroen injectors need a special spanner to remove them, I did on my multispace, its interesting that the missfire doesnt occur when that kit was attached which would point to the return lines being the issue my 1.9 diesel injector no3 had a wire on it and reported injector faults to the lexia, im rather suprized that the lexia didnt detect an injector fault, have you checked all the return lines for splits in the ends of the pipes for cracks or splits, it could be pulling air into the fuel system that way, the little return lines next to the injectors often get neglected over the years and its a dirt cheap fix if it is that. The XUD engine fuel filter housings can leak air with age to, often the bitron seals on the top of the fuel filter housing lid and underneath the filter housing (if you pull the fuel filter there is a bolt in the bottom of the fuel filter housing) they can perish allowing air into the filter housing. when was the last time you unscrewd the filter water drain on the bottom and drained it? maybe youve picked up some water from a low tank in a garage, or maybe youve been to a Morrisons garage they are terrible for supplying us water in diesel fuel. I avoid Morisons garages like the plague since my mechanic showed me a mix of diesel and water drained from a customers fuel tank on a Citroen over 2 gallons of water. it would be interesting if you could attach some clear fuel line on the engine side of the pump or exiting the filter housing and see if you have air bubbles in the line whilst the engine is running, this would cause the car to stutter as the spray pattern on the injectors would keep being interupted and it would only get worse with time as you seem to have described. I am inclined to believe that what you have is air in the system, I dont know if the berlingos have a diesel fuel heater on the back of the engine, BX's definately had them, many were discarded as modern fuels were introduced with lower freezing temperatures of the fuel, the diesel heater has a tendancy to corrode at the pipe joints on the back of the engine and let air into the fuel system, often when garages fit a new fuel line on an aging Citroen diesel they now bypass the fuel heater curing the leak of air into the system. Id definately try a piece of clear fuel line connected to the exit line of the filter housing first to see if you have any air bubbles in the fuel, at least you can then rule it out and move on.

Did the misfire return after refitting the leak off pipes? Did you check live parameters with Lexia? Particularly check that the fuel pressure is stable when the misfire is present. The symptoms may also be consistent with a restricted exhaust system.

Galvanic corrosion between the steel injector and the alloy head practically welds them in place. I've seen someone use an improvised tool involving two bottle jacks to try and pull an injector from a 2.0 HDI, and it wouldn't move. With the amount of force being applied to it, it would have launched the injector into space if it had given way suddenly. A later attempt caused the injector to break in half which then had to be machined out of the head.

Can't remember the mileage on Bella but injectors do need to be changed at certain mileages along with injector pump overhaul and a thorough fuel line check, change always as a set, check manufactures workshop manual for when (online?). Often before 100,000 on a car, even on a truck or bus, but should never be over that. Over 5,000 gallons of fuel would have passed through each injector.

Never had a problem with that age Peug/Citr engine taking injectors out unlike newer vehicles where you hang the car off of the engine crane vier the injector or smash the cylinder head off around it like a Renault traffic, BUT you did not get the symptoms while doing the test...what did you do to set up the test that stopped the symptoms ? that's the diag route you need to go, repeat and prove. You also may need a refacing tool to clean the seats if you do remove the injectors. xx

There's a new type of diesel injection removal tool that relies on a rapidly vibrating pneumatic slide hammer that vibrates the injector free and it's designed for really stubborn jobs where traditional 'brute force' extractors can cause damage. Might be worth Googling to see if these can be hired. In an ideal world, there would be very little diesel in any of the bottles but since your engine has done some miles, there is leak off but at least it's fairly equal across all four bottles (all four injectors have worn more or less equally), albeit a tad higher in injector number four. If just one of the tiny orifices in the injector nozzle has blocked , then the spray pattern is affected and thus combustion, and internal fuel pressure in the injector will climb thus causing higher leak off volume back through the return/leak-off system. Excess leak-off if allowed to continue can cause the high pressure fuel pump to work harder than it needs to because it's detecting a more rapid drop in fuel rail pressure. This can also have the side effect of making the low pressure tank lift pump to also work harder than it needs to in order to try and get the required volume of fuel to the high pressure system. This is where oscilloscope/Picoscope diagnostics can be useful to see voltage/current draw on electric lift pumps. The next stage would be removal of all four injectors so a spray pattern test can be carried out on a diesel injector test bed. Worth noting common rail injectors of this era aren't particularly complex to take apart. Loads of videos on YT where the mechanical bits of the injectors and nozzles are cleaned in an ultra sound bath.
