What people need to realise is, injectors are now a consumable part, they have there useable life

They always did, tips at 100thousand has been the recommendation for years at about 60-80 dollars per injector.

just that the whole injector is fucked now with efi/common rail and that would be fine and dandy if they were a similar cost...but they are not.

But the old stuff kept chugging with 3-4 hundy kms

$2.4K for a set of injectors for the Colorado

I think you're right about that.

Post 2012 on Holden Colorado and Isuzu D-Max are structurally similar; the powertrains are completely different. There has been some problems with the Colorado engine.

The later D-Max 3L 4JJ1 engine has a B10 rating of 500,000km, which means 90 per cent of engines are expected to reach 500,000km before requiring a rebuild.

I reckon, its not hard to change pintle nozzles, seats and springs then check crack off pressure

Surely the new injectors are serviceable

Have lost count of how many truck injectors and pumps i had to rebuild in my apprentice years.

We rarely replaced whole components, we rebuilt them. -starters, alternators, carbs, heads, shortblocks.

I never got to grind cranks but watched one being done.

If these new injectors are non serviceable then thats a thumbs down to the design guys

They can be reconned Im sure, mine were, by Bosch Agent, at about 80ks and put back in, worked perfect
