Well it took a while because of vacations here in France but he replaced the injection loop, gasket and no oil in the ECU red plug visible and a filter. Still the same problem. He now suspects it may be an injector, is that at all possible ? FYI he can communicate with the car through his diagnostic devices, three different ones but not with the engine... Any thoughts ? thanks !

My only thought is that you still need to do live data readings via a Nanocom, a Foxwell, or another diagnostic that CAN communicate with the engine's ECM.

You may just need a set of new engine/gearbox mounts.

Thanks again ! much appreciated, I went to our very competent mechanic, and with Famous Four conclude what you conclude. The problem is that we need to get the right diagnostic, per your advise. He tried three of the diagnostic tools he has: he can see the ABS, the brakes etc all good, but no readings on the engine. Now this is not unusual as you know better then me but we need the right diagnostic in the area of Albi, Castres, Cordes, Gaillac in France.
Anybody reading this that has one that we can use, rent or what have you ?

Well I have a Foxwell but sadly we are off back to the UK tomorrow or else I'd have met up with you somewhere and we could have had a bash at it. Thinking about it, my next door neighbour, who is a Land Rover nut has a Nanocom and although he doesn't know you I could ask him if he wants to help.
I'll email him and see if he is happy to take your email address which you could private message to me and then you could both take it from there? OK?

Top right hand corner of each page next to the bell is an envelope. Click on that and you should be able to work it out. Email sent a second ago.
He is in Labrespy, Mazamet. If you google Labrespy you'll find it straight away as there is only one in the world.

Last spring my Ninety had symptoms of engine shaking on start up. It was still running fine just a bit of extra vibration, however on startup the engine could be seen shaking quite a lot. Being a 200tdi no electronic stuff to check
Although no mounts were broken a new set sorted the problem. Worth a look?
