A Delphi agent will also be able to test the IMV at the same time to see if that's at fault. (it is a likely candidate in my experience)
It does seem very expensive just to test the parts - but the alternative is to spend even more on swapping parts 'on a hunch'. With TDCIs it's always wise to get a proper diagnosis before buying random components - believe me, as I've been there, done that, and fitted several very expensive t-shirts!!!
I know mate I think ill just have to have them bench tested. It will have to wait due to funds though
