My 2007 SR got a similar problem and the dealer in Mt Isa replaced all four injectors for free even its warranty expired. But that was done in late 2010, 6 months after expiry of warranty. The dealer said toyota acknowledges that 5-6% of diesel hiluxes are affected and they will replace the injectors on a case by case basis. I think it depneds on the milage and service record.

I am not a deisel expert so i am not sure of these claims
please if anyone can shed any light on this subject please feel free all advice will be apprecitated.

funny enough i tryed to ring coffs diesel service and lismore diesel serviced answered so im thinking the bloke owns both and he is a very reputable diesel pump mechanic he has been in the buisness for over 40yrs and have only ever heard good about him. he was the one who quoted me $2500 to do the job (he does at least 1 a week) and another fella at same place quoted me $3500 so i think i will be talking to the old bloke when i take it in hopefuly next wek lol.
also i posted another topic about the chips and injector rattles please have a look and tell me your thoughts.
