Was told $240 including new filters and seals and a bunch of whatever else the bloke said. Thoughts? Seems expensive to me, I thought they just cleaned them in a special solution lol

If that includes removal of the injectors, it is cheap

According to an engine builder/tuner who comes through work there's no need under 250k's.
If I've still got the car I'll get mine done then or I may buy the new Boschs on ebay for $50 ea and stick those in. |

I'm still on a budget lol I think I'd rather have the transmission serviced. I'll have to decide before I get it tuned

See if they can do a better price on Trans service and injector clean together..
I know when I was in the trade, we'd knock off a bit off each price when people were getting a couple of things done.. Can't hurt to ask....

i've herd injectors can be done for $20 each.
thats you take them out, give them to the recoditioner, put them back in. if you used bad fuel constantly or always let your car run super low on petty i would assume there would b a lot of gunk in there. i've herd stories tho that it makes things run a bit smoother tho when you've done it tho |

i've been told that factory bosch injectctors can't been serviced they can be ultra sonically cleaned but if anything is worn then toss em, once there worn they are a throw away item , i've spoken to people that have had them serviced and they were no better , the pintel and seat wear and then they leak. only a thought , im no expert , just what i've heard , cheers.

sometimes it is worth it to get brand knew injectors depending on the cost.

Yeah mate that sounds like my car. Only problem is it's been running like that since I got the cam in, it's never been tuned properly and it's ran rich since then, fouls plugs on idle. Maybe I should take them out with a mate, how long does that generally take?
Oh and great link lol
