Hi.
I have a 07 1.6 HDI van and Replaced a injector in my van, The van smoke's really bad now, All i see in rear view mirror is pure smoke.
Do i need to code the injector to the ECU?. And where's the best place to buy a lexia kit from. And which kit should i go for.
Thanks in advance

There is a guy on this forum that remaps vehicles and he said the 1.6hdi will run if you replace the injectors but not correctly he stated that they do need programing to the vehicle to get it running right.
I hope he will be along soon to advise you.

Always wary of 2nd hand. Assuming it's good, was it fitted with the correct new copper washer? Did you get the old washer out?. Seen this cause smoke issues before although usually black smoke. In theory they should be coded but in practice they are usuall ok as a straight swap
