Unfortunately we don't have a manual on this vehicle as it is not offered here in the USA but I am sure that we can figure something out on this.

What makes you believe that the injectors are the issue? Are you able to use starter fluid in the intake in order to get the engine to start?

Have you checked the fuel pressure to find out if we have a fuel delivery issue?

Here is a guide that will help with this:

Lastly we need to know if there are codes in the system which will help figure out possible issues.

Please run through this info and let us know a little more detail on what is happening when you try to start the vehicle and we can go from there.

Thanks
