Hey there! Thanks a ton, bud! You might just have hit the nail on the head there. I'm relieved to hear it's not the end of the road for my beloved Tiida. I gotta admit, those injectors have never been changed. They're as old as the car itself. By the way, if you don't mind me asking, how much damage did swapping the injectors do to your wallet? And since the swap, has anything else popped up or has it been a smooth ride? Cheers!

Hey there, No problem, happy to help! Fixing the faulty injectors set me back by 515 € - not the cheapest repair, but worth it if you ask me! And guess what? Ever since she saw the mechanic, my Sentra has been running like a dream. The rough idling and funky exhaust smell vanished just like that. Just a tip, when explaining to your mechanic, make sure to give a clear picture of the problem, including these new questions you have about the injectors. Remember, an informed mechanic can make a significant difference! Best of luck with giving your Tiida a new lease of life! Cheers.

Hey! Wow, thanks for the heads up! That's a weight off my shoulders, and it’s certainly a price I'm willing to shell out to get my Tiida back on track. I really appreciate all your advice. I’ll be making a trip to the mechanic very soon now. Here's to hoping it resolves all the issues—rattling, the stink, and the monstrous fuel consumption! Once again, thanks a heap for your help! Will keep you posted on the progress. Cheers!

Hey, Had a similar issue with my 2017 Nissan Sentra about a year ago. Car was drinking fuel like a fish, rough idle, and rather lethargic acceleration just like your Tiida is now. Had the same symptoms plus the funky exhaust odor to boot. Turns out, it was the injectors playing up. Had them swapped out and she's been purring since. Wasn't a minor issue, but not catastrophic either. More of an annoyance, really. Just be upfront with your mechanic about the symptoms, and don't let them sell you anything more than necessary. If your problem is the same as mine, swapping injectors should get your Tiida straightened out. Take care!
