Yes but they tick too loud, it sounds like tappets when they tick!
I have had an Astra one with the C16SE engine and the injectors on that never made such a loud ticking noise.

Different engines makes different injector noises.
I always thought the C14SE and the C20NE have "loud" injectors but thats just how they are.

C20NE has loud ticking. Idiot that came to buy mine said 'tappet number one is ticking, fancy knocking £100 off the price?'. I said no. He bought it anyway...

I know injectors make a little ticking noise but the way my injectors tick, it sounds like I have a Ford CVH engine under the bonnet! lmao
Do you think I should buy some new ones? Or are they really expensive?

The injectors in my 20XE sound like bloody mousetraps or something. I'm glad someone else notices these things too !

Have them cleaned you will see better flow rates, better performance, equal spray pattern, and better fuel econ.
This could help the noise as well.

No I haven't cleaned them. I will get them ultrasonically cleaned after the car has been serviced, see how the car is after that.

So then it is not a good idea to get them ultrasonically cleaned according to that web site then?

Yeh reading that, he's saying ultrasonic cleaning is bad
I was also thinking about getting mine cleaned, how much does it roughly cost to get a set done ??

I think it's about £15 per injector, but there's some guy on here that will do them for you but you have to post them to him or something.

Thats no problem mate, the car is going to be off the road for a bit in the summer anyway, while I do some work on the engine.
Who exactly is it ? and does anyone know how much he charges ?
