Hey guys,

New member here, I own a 2011 1.6jtdm Giulietta, had her for 3 years and absolutely love it!

I have the dreaded rear wiring loom issue which I have just been reading out (rear wiper doesn't work at all) and I have just noticed that I have a leaking injector... Any ideas on the reason????

Many thanks

By leaking injector do you mean you can feel a draft above the injector and the engine bay smells of diesel? If so it probably needs a new copper washer at the injector.
I would change them all. If it has been failing for a while the washer will be all gunked up and difficult to remove. Think there might be some specialist tools available for washer removal as it can be difficult. I paid a mechanic to fix mine on the 156. I can't remember the cost but it was less than £200.
