My 2.2 Hdi has done 160k miles and the tick over is a bit rough so, I'm thinking of having something done to the injectors.
There are 3 options as far as I can tell:-
1. Ultrasonic cleaning, but this won't have any effect on worn parts of the injector.
2. Replacement nozzles, this will replace the worn/dirty nozzles but will there still be other worn parts which will have a big impact on injector operation?
3. New injectors, Ideal but will cost megga bucks so, I don't really want to go here. Recon injectors are cheaper than new but still a lot of money.
Does anyone have any experience with work done to their injectors?

Never needed to swap injectors on my HDi 110 8v and thats 260k of miles too...
Rough idle, have you checked the operation of the rail pressure sensor etc with the Parameters on lexia? A low reading or fluctuating pressure sensor can cause a lumpy idle..

Try a bottle of Forté diesel fuel system treatment first before springing for new injectors.
