I have a set of these to go in mine. 100% genuine.
Flashing EML is faulty injector. Apparently you can check their electrical resistance, not sure what to look for on this.
Maybe that's why mine isn't throwing a code when the EML starts to flash, and only does so after a while of idle and then turns off when I restart the car, it's like one the limit of being an error. When the one injector did go (and when one wasn't actually connected) it was flashing constant.
Easy enuff to get to? Take fuel rail cover off at front? And will this store the fault codes so I will have a light on dash all time?
Mine put up an error when I was driving around with one not attached. Somehow it unplugged itself while driving. Not sure how. But if you have a code reader then it's not really an issue
I did run a tank of Redex injector cleaner and two tanks of V-power for the first long journey after the winter as it was off the road for about 4 months. Then I started having injector issues - one was broke for sure as it was a 3 cylinder. But then occasinally I get this lumpy idle like what you have described. I will change the remaining three injectors to see if this helps. But I had a think earlier it is as if it is on the limit of fueling incorrectly so it wont give an error but after a while of idle it dips below this limit momentarily and then the EML starts flashing eventhough it is fueling within tollerance. Could be a sign that another injector is going. Just did a 500 mile round trip to North Wales and back for the weekend and got 43mpg on the motor way, so it is not as if it is struggling. If this doesn't work I am seeing it as an excuse to spank out on a new rebuilt, race-prep'd engine with ITB's and cams!! haha! That will definately solve the problem....just the expensive way!Try some forte http://www.forteuk.co.uk/product-detail/21/Specialist-Injector-Cleaner

It's helped my case a little. I'll be trying an injector from N4TH4N and if that fails....Swapping the fuel rail and 4 injectors over from my breaker.
IF that fails....then it's time to dig back in to the pockets
No probs, but it won't be until next month or June really. Car is going to be put away and rarely used as I am busy for the remainder of the month then a work trip away so I am going back to the normal car. But at least someone else is having the same issues as me! I thought it was coil pack but the EML flashing said otherwise.m
That seller seems to have sold out of them now. Did see some others from a different seller for even cheaper that are claimed as genuine. Maybe check those out: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=281919121405&alt=web.
It was advanced a bit (told Phil this when I test drove it) and the seal on the cam cover was leaking at the back, had only done minimal mileage since you'd done it so I was a bit gobsmacked too.
