P0136 Possible Fix :
Probably the biggest result of injector failure is due to the injectors having excessive return flow or back leakage. This is due to worn parts which allow excessive fuel to go through the diesel injector and to return back to the tank or fuel system. This causes a drop in rail pressure which results in hard starting or not starting at all.

Excessive air inflow can be caused by a vacuum leak, a dirty sensor or, an exhaust gas recirculation valve not closing properly. If the problem is not enough fuel, the culprit may be dirty injectors or fuel filters, a weak fuel pump or a leaky fuel pressure regulator.

How to Clear P0136 Trouble Code
An OBD 2 scanner is the best and safest way to erase a DTC from your car's system. This scanner communicates with the car's computer and instructs the computer to erase the code. It does not change or tweak the settings from inside the car or its systems.
