hi I've had no problems with the car for 4 months then I started to here what sounds like a steam train coming from the engine, on removing the engine cover what I think is an injector is puffing out some sort of vapour, doesn't smell of diesel and I have no errors have a look a the video and see if anybody knows what it is.

Re: has an injector started to leak?
thanks for the reply, the problem was very simple just an injector had become loose, the hardest bit was getting a 7mm allen key Halfords didn't have one but b+q did.
