where can I get a new injector?

[S-Express]

Just had my injectors serviced - was a waste of money really. There was a 0.1% max diff in flow before cleaning and the same after. Spray pattern looked good - not bad for 160k miles - i think thats the advantage of using decent fuel and not supermarket cr$p
Anyway - went to refit them today and when I started the car one of them was leaking and spraying fuel all over the engine
Turns out that the ally top of the injector has been bent (its been dropped basically) and it wasn't by me So garage must be to blame but I can imagine there response "it was fine when we gave it to you sir". So to save all the hassle, I'm trying to find a new one Bosch pt no 0280150951 VW/Audi pt no:034906031B (ABY engine).
Not having much luck with Google - I've emailed Pete Reeve - anyone know anywhere else I can try???
Cheers fellas

How did you know that the spray pattern and flow rate were good? did you actually watch the injector servicing whilst it was being done?

Corey at quattronics, he might have one if that someone's upgraded to say rs2 or higher spec. Or there was a aby coupe that was getting broken that was mentioned in a thread by azman recently.

Think 4 rings have 2 being broken at present. Depends if they will just sell one seperate.

Kind of - I was shown them spraying after cleaning - they gave me a before/after report too. trying to get a new one now as I'd rather do that than get another one cleaned....

Hmmm, can I ask you who carried out the servicing?

Ive got a spare used one if you want it.

It was a garage in Wrexham (N.Wales) that had an ASNU machine.
Very helpfull and proffesional - except for this problem! Will ring them tomorrow see what we can sort out - probably pissing in the wind tho

Top Sparky - don't really want to go down the route of uprated injectors just want the 1 oe one! Want to get a new one save getting it cleaned.

Cheers Spink will keep you in reserve if thats ok.

How easy is it to get the top ally sealing ring off btw? Maybe I could just replace that part and not the whole injector??

I also have some spare ABY ones - got 'em cheap ages ago - never tested so bit risky. Waiting to get a whole set then I'll have them serviced and sold as a set or dropped into my car. If you are desperate for one then I could liberate for you.

Cheers Paul - that's why you wanted those O rings I sent you then :mischeif:
I've got a new one winging its way over from Germany, £90 delivered from Quattro Corner (thanks Pete )

Still trying to get hold of the guy who serviced them..hmm......
