    As I mentioned, did you check and or replace the fuel and air filters?

    Ok, I would suggest then that you have somebody plug into the ECM. It's possible one of the ejectors is going bad it just hasn't thrown a code yet, Or the mechanical side of the injectors failing which would not throw a code

    The injector may not be Spraying correctly or dripping. They can do a cylinder cut out test to help identify which injector is going bad.

    That problem sounds like its electrical, and most likely is not related

    On my 14L it had these same exact issues. Turns out it was the actuator on the turbo.
