You will need to get the codes read for a start

Mate I fixed this very problem today on the bosses one. His is a 53 plate tdi and after testing the injectors it was that. ,408 quid plus the vat for the set but it run like a new car after fitting them and they are easy to change.

although u found the injectors were shot i reckon they have gone due to the fuel pump breaking up and clogging them up.by turning the car off it releases the pressure and hence unblocks the injector nozzles
