Berlingo Problems.. - BerlingoMan
Berlingo diesel 1.9, 2002, with 30k on the clock (Non HDi).

Driving home tonight, sudden loss of power and a knocking sound from the drivers side of the engine (Near the top).

Car starts OK (ish) and will run but continues to knock runs rough and has low power.

All sorts of horrible things went through my mind from a disintegrating cam belt to broken pistons or cam shafts!

As the knocking isn't regular it seems that maybe it isn't the failure of a major mechanical part.

The recovery driver seemed to think that it was almost certainly a broken fuel injector.

Is this likely? If not, what else could it be?
