I bought my dream car Polo GT TDI on 14/02/2020.
To my dismay, car got stranded in the highway due to injector failure within ten days of delivery. (ODO reading -2000Kms)
I searched automotive forums whether there had been an issue with injectors for other VAG owners. Much to my surprise, I have seen loads and loads of experiences of injector failures for VW cars purchased during 2010 to 2014.
Coming to my car , the injector got replaced and it was running just fine.
But I was wary of taking it to highway. So to clear my doubts and to enjoy the Polo without fear , I have some questions to be answered by enthusiasts here
1)Is there anything that I can do to keep the injector clean?
2) Can I use diesel additives to prevent injector problems?
3) Do VW approve of any additives
P.S: I already had an 2014 Honda city iDtec. 6 years of ownership, 1,37,000 on ODO. It’s on stock clutch and suspension.
