just replaced mine bought it from a local factors £177 including vat then went back and bought the special tool to remove it another £14 but you wont get the injector out with out it, its a very slim special shaped socket for the bosh injector with sensor wire on.

the good news is its a simple job took about half an hour or so while your under the intercooler you may as well replace the leak off pipes if you havent done then in a while

I made my own injector removal socket, use a standard injector socket, but angle grind off the end piece - has to be accurate though!

well done i did think about doing that but for 14 quid not worth cutting up a decent socket and buggering up my nice set now i have a nice new socket in the draw in the garage gonna have a go soon removeing the other injectors and cleaning them up not that the old one looked to shabby but iv yet to make a home tester to connect to it and see what the spray pattern is like

still looking on utube for ideas

yh it wasn't too hard, but at the time I didn't have a choice because I couldn't find a single place online or shop that sold them. Plenty of normal injector sockets, but none with the gap for the sensor and wire
