Go to your local garage and get their fuel injector service. It's very effective, I would highly recommend!

I dont trust local garages and would never recommend them to anyone, not trying to sound like a jerk. but DIY are just as effective and cheap. Ive fixed my own cars or friends cars for over 13 years now. Just thought someone could link me to a DIY for injectors. Thanks for the advise though
Never did a injector cleaning job before, however im willing to learn it.

You seem to be against using local shops, but that really is the way to go.

Take them out if you feel you must do something yourself, then take them to a shop that specializes in diesel engines. Tell them you want them flow checked and serviced as necessary.

Taking fuel injectors apart and "cleaning" them is useless without the proper equipment to flow check them before and after you're done.
