Hey everyone, 

Only new to this but would appreciate some help. Bought my first Lexus there in Jan, its an is 220d 2008, beautiful car but starting to have a little trouble with her. Got a great deal on her but starting to understand why. 

Bought it as a private sale from a mechanic with full service history. Its just rolling 200km on the clock but service history says she was well looked after. 

Problem I'm having is, I think fuel injector and after reading up possibly the 5Th injector. Bit of dark diesel around the top of engine block and its hissing out fumes. I've attached a video. If anyone could give me an idea I'd be very grateful. I'm based in Dublin. 

Is the car drivable to a mechanic or should it be towed? 

Thanks in advance 

Hi James, 

Wondering if this is similiar to what you experienced? Sounds the exact same. I'd appreciate any feedback. Not sure if I want to attempt it myself. Few people trying to talk me out of it! Mine is a 2008 220d 

Hi Clive, I've the exact same problem. 

Took this video earlier, you experience the same?
