Took the car to get 'diagnosed' with what I thought could've been a faulty NOx sensor.. They plugged it in to realise that 2 injectors were not fuelling correctly! (as well as an electrical fault with the NOx sensor) They said that petrol would be leaking from the injectors into the oil; thus thinning the oil until the engine gives up..

Obviously this would not be an ideal situation..

They have quoted £2160 for 2 new injectors, a new NOx sensor, new spark plugs and an oil change. I haven't come across anything like this before and wonder if anyone else has?

If so, do you see that as a reasonable price?

On a US/CA diesel car, that would be a "reasonable" price. Not pleasant or ideal for sure. The NOx sensors are quite expensive (around $500 each); not sure which injectors you have, but the M57 US ones are around $500 each.

Check prices on realoem.com - although US based, it has all the EU/UK parts/numbers/costs.
