Friend has a 2003 Duramax. Dealer says #2 injector is leaking oil into the cylinder, and # 7 injector is leaking fuel into the engine oil. Dealer wants $5600.00 to fix. Are these engines that hard to change injectors in?? Has 202,000 miles. Thanks

Dave

It's interesting to read this post about the Duramax. I've heard so much bad about the 6.5, yet our '95 diesel Suburban is pushing 240,000 miles with the factory-installed injectors. Still runs & starts like the day we picked it up in Texas. We had several injection pump problems within the first 80,000 miles but factory took care of the warranty well beyond 100,000 miles. Must be the Duramax injectors aren't the best of quality. I've heard good things about the engine lately, but not the early ones.

Have your friend go to diesel place, its a Huge Duramax site, and they can help him sort this out. Even get him aftermarket injectors and help find a "good" local dealer.

GM extended the warranty of 2001 to 2004 Dmax's injectors to 7 years or 200000 miles which ever comes first. Since your friends is 2000 miles over I bet he could get GM to cover it or most of it. Try a differant dealer or go farther up on the food chain. Its not the design of the engine thats at fault its the bosch injectors that are junk. Dodge has trouble with them in their diesel engines to. If you take 295 X 8 you get $2336 plus labor. I'am sure the injectors thru GM would be higher. Changing out those injectors is a big job requireing removal of the top wiring harness, valve covers and a lot of small parts, ie lots of billable labor hours.

I have a 2003 duramax with 210,00 miles, it is on its 3rd set of injectors. GM has covered them all. I know that it is expensive otherwise.

I think he checked into that ray, but for some reason it is not still under warranty. Least ways as far as the dealer goes. Maybe needs to ask higher up. Still seems like a lot for injectors. Can get them in Abilene for $295.00 ea.

GM extended the injector warranty on the duramax.
I got a letter from GM last year.I think it extended my warranty to over 200000 miles.
