2002 Renault Espace 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual

Hello,

can anyone help with a possible diagnosis for this problem. There are exhust fumes and a lot of oily/carbon deposits around what i think is injector no.3, is gonna be an expensive fix or something simple. I am no good with modern cars i can cope with my series 3 landrover and that is about it.

Picture of the mess included.

The injector seal is leaking. The injector will need repalcing. A relatively straight forward job. Do it sooner rather than later as they tend to get a build up underneath and can be very difficult to get out ! I cannot quote a price i'm afraid ! But it will not be too expensive !
