Thank you @ngoma. No, it's a different shop and I completely lost trust in it after even the replacement injector was faulty. I will return the whole batch and buy somewhere else 👍

Thank you for the answers @v8volvo and @ngoma. So you reckon it's not even worth trying to adjust the smoke screw and idle screw myself? As in, those cannot explain that the engine is running like it...

Any tip on what would be a good next step? Adjusting the smoke screw and idle perhaps? Still unclear how the LDA would play a role right now, grateful for any hint :)

Some progress today. The pump trick didn't reveal any obvious air ingress, so I concluded air must have been coming in from the filter or from any of the hoses plugged to it. After taking it out and...

Yes they all pop at the right pressure and only one of them slightly dripped when held at close-to-pop-pressure. Two new injectors are on their way already since they are under warranty, although...
