Hi guys, ive hit 170,000km now on my 2013 hilux and figured its time to get the injectors replaced, toyota have quoted me $4,170. does that sound about right?

Get them to break down the quote so you know what they are replacing and included in the job

You can get a set of Baileys injectors for around 1.6K and another $400 for new fuel lines + $100 for gasket/seals

I was under the impression genuine denso injectors were the best option, that was the quote she gave me over the phone, i told them its just preventative maintenance and doesnt have any issues but she said they have to get it in for a $170 diagnostic to make sure nothing else needs doing first.

Baileys use denso injectors but they refurbish them with new internals. I believe denso now do the same thing.

It would be worth getting a diagnostic done first then decide if new injectors are required now or can wait.
I'd get a printed quote for any major work

Get them tested and post the results here

I just gave my MY11 200,000 a mid life refresh.
Tyres, manual gearbox rebuild (synco in 2nd was getting crunchy so did all syncros bearings etc ), new heavy duty clutch, still had original and working ok, 200k major service and replaced injectors for no reason except piece of mind. Injectors thru toyota. Injectors, pipes gaskets etc $2,607.74 labour $472.74. Total 3,388.01 with gst.
Suggest book it in for a cold start diagnostics - thinks it's about $80. You get a print out of all kinds of stuff including Injectors.
You hear all kinds of stories from so called experts when you should replace Injectors but they have evolved over the years. My wife picked the car up and mechanic asked her why we changed them as thought they were fine.

Sad part I just spent over $7k on it and only use it for occasional holidays intending to keep another 10 years now seriously thinking of getting new Rouge when the facelift is released in march

You need to ask for a brake down of what they are going to do.

Cold start diagnostics. Tell us more

Been looking for a while but can't find the report I had. So from memory I remember
Full injector reading cold and hot
Full pressures
And a heap more. Also gives the in spec values to compare. You may need to drop off to toyota the night before so it's cold next day. I'll keep looking for mine but ring your local dealer and they can give more info.

Quote came back from Adelaide Diesel, seems more respectable.
1X remove and replace injectors, change fuel filter, code injectors. Commission engine, scan engine and chassis, compare live data to specifications, road test vehicle = $742.50
4X injectors (denso brand new) = $1820
1X fitting kit = $208.50
1x fuel filter = $30.15
1x consumables = $42.00
Total = $3127.48

They don't list injector pipes it is recommended that they be renewed.

Looks more reasonable
Yep - well worth getting new fuel lines. They can be used twice in theory but the insides of the lines deteriorate
