Likely it needs a new injector, common on this engine.

Just I have to replace 1 injector or I have to replace all injector.

And according to error message the first injector is bad. So from left to right is the first.

You can probably get away with just changing the faulty one. No 1 is at the flywheel end, because the French like to be different!

Is the flywheel side the first?

I thought that the first is where the diesel filter is

The fuel filter can theoretically be situated anywhere whereas the flywheel always has to be between the engine and gearbox. Go with the flywheel!

Hi again!

I bought a new injector. I replaced but I have a new problem. Now the No1 cylinder is okay but the injector is too fast and the idling is not so good.

I wrote the new injector code into the car. So I dont no what is the problem. I chose the injector code via Servicebox with VIN number.

And later I got a new error code
P12A1.
P16A3
