Can anyone give me a quick how too on removing the injectors from my a3 2.0l tdi 170?

I've only had a glance but couldn't see them so starting from where they are and any tips on removal would be great?

Same as you would with a BKD PD140.
Remove rocker cover.
Remove rocker
Remove cams
Un-clip the injectors from the wiring harness
Either side of the injector is a torque bolt. Remove the bolts then prise the injector out.

Lol so I assume that means resetting the timing belt and everything after?

I wonder if an injector fails under warranty , audi will change all 4 due to the size of the job? Lol
