Injectors, just put some 2 stroke your diesel in it'll help quite them down a bit. Nothing wrong with the injector though just a bit noisy

Yep its the injectors ticking if it stops at 3.2k rpm.
The 307 injectors aren't coded to the ECU, but you do need to check the part numbers, 306s are 044, the less ticky ones are 062 and 076 iirc.

Definitely injector tick. apparently can be cured by fitting new injector washers and baskets which will cost less than £5.

Incidentally, anyone who tells you it's wastegate chatter is your classic "bloke in the pub" btw, no such thing as wastegate chatter.

EGR blank both ends so you can remove the 2kg of metal or is it just the manifold side?
i have a plate in between mine (1mm mild steel) sandwiched between the valve and the unit, and also have the unit disconnected electronically and have taken the vacuum off...
Given the choice between Niall and the sheep. I would choose the sheep!

You really don't want to try removing the whole system with the engine in place and needing the car as a daily...
I've never had a serious problem getting injectors out, a bit of twisting and a touch of careful prybar had them all out in under half an hour every time.
