There is a place in Crewe that will clean and recondition injectors, ranges from £10 - £60 per injector iirc, it depends how they are "faulty" I suppose as to whether they can help of course. Arnt new injectors like £80 a piece, and needing 6 thats like £480 just for the injectors themselves? Sorry to hear it though fella  EDIT - Post 10,000 was about injectors lol.

The place is http://www.creweengines.co.uk/ I think - according to a guy on the MG Rover forums they do Rover L Series SDi injectors for around £10 for a clean or around £30ish for a recondition, per injector. Not sure if they will do your's or even still do it, but it may be worth seeing what they say after you got the full score from the Audi place.

Just sent my mate the e-mail (Said you had been quoted £240 per injector), his reply is as follows:
Probably get thet down by a ton.
Whats the engine code ?
If you can give me the 3 letter code I'll confirm.

but a whole lot cheaper than proper audi!
