Rev needle moves about 10mm up and down when starting with white smoke, once started runs ok until you come to lights ect and idle is erratic again but not as bad .. maybe 5mm.

Got her booking into a garage on monday so they can remove and test injectors, but im not so sure... could it be fuel pressure sensor/harness instead?

Serviced in May
EGR Fitted
BMW breather crank filter fitted

Yes, could be injectors or fuel pressure sensor/harness instead. If the garage is any good they should be able to work it out

Went to LR Indi Yesterday and we plugged her in and No3 is at 2.6 and No4 is 2.7 .. so hes going to test them and probably be replacing No3 as thats the problem one and then causing No4 to be high apparently.
