hi all i was wondering if anyone has had to replace there injectors yet and what mileage??

ive had to have all 4 done this week along with a new egr valve as running like total ****e even when warm, so i sent it into a local diesel specialist to be looked at not even entertaining fiat main dealer who i bet wud contract this kind of work out anyway! it had the full works compression tests, injectors and pump rig tested etc etc turns out 3 injectors were totally knackered and forth well worn, no wonder it ran rough!

i have to wonder about whether the vehicle had really done the 30k miles shown when brought it secondhand! but i paid my money and took my chance as with any secondhand car! its now at 60k btw

it runs sweet as a nut now mind!! its never been so smooth or quiet or pokey at low revs since i brought it! granted it was an expensive job (wallet in freezer!) but the car is like new :) and it had to have them done because im keeping it until it all falls to bits because i have it racked out in the back! and cant face doing all the work to another doblo just yet!

so i was after knowing if any of the higher genuine mileage doblos had had this work done??
 
My first went around 35K and the next at 70K.
First time the dealer replaced £££ but recognising the fault I took all three injectors to be reconditioned just off the Parkway in Sheffield.
All still going strong approaching 190K now.
No doubt going to fail any minute now.
 
197000
one total fail, three halfway there.

having them all recon plus renozzled, £105 each.
