Idiot light been on over 3 months and mechanic did diagnostics and it said it was needle in injector pump engine lacking power and noisy on tickover

Unless he is using Nissan consult then most generic code readers will give a false code.
There is a download on here that shows you how to read the fault codes for free and gives you the true code.

0k thanks I will tell him when I see him tomorrow thankyou for your advice greatly appreciated might save some bucks as well car is very ratty at tickover and seems sluggish.
Started putting shell v power in last year because told cheap fuel is cause of most injector problems

Gizmos · 08-02-2018, 20:34

Still would like to look for injector pump or just the needle any ideas where to find on please

I have no idea what the needle is or where it is located, but doubt you would be able change it even if you could buy one without having the pump set up professionally, also you do not say if it is Bosch or Zexel, as it happens I have a Zexel pump going spare, Rick

I would start with the basics first.
A good service and change all fluids and filters.
I had issues with my injector pump on my old 2.7 TDI and I'm going to agree with Rick that unless you are a specialist then leave the.pump alone.
My money would be on the no 1 injector but a proper diagnosis and code would shed some light on that.

Ok thanks everyone been reading kitchenman post with injector Problem, serviced all filters 2000 miles ago and changed to shell power last year I will see my mechanic today and discuss advice and check if bosh pump

Mechanic has good reader updates monthly.
But on this subject I am thinking of purchasing a code reader for myself and ideas which one and where to buy bearing in mind my vehicle is 2003 and I think the type you need changed 2002? Also on my 2.7 where do you plug them in I couldn’t find socket anywhere?
PS where on site can I find the fault code download mentioned above, tried but still struggling to find my way around site john. Think I have sorted bosh pump for my 2.7 from buycarpartsco.uk for £32 pounds. No kidding I will let everyone know if genuine pump it seems ok but seems too cheap! Paid with PayPal with good return service fingers crossed, if I had got it last night would of got it for £29 but had to go to garage to make sure pump was a bosh.
