    ahaha when i saw that thread it did give me some motivation, at least i know i can pretty much run the truck forever. Bosch makes a set of injectors now that they say fixed the problem so im gonna try those and see how they work.

    I was thinking the OEM injectors were now fixed (if you went and bought them new from the dealer "today") i can ask my friend who has a lb7 i know theres more options i just cant remember what they are. Also this is the best duramax forum out there IMO Diesel bombers is good too but its the "big three" so dosent always help.

    Once replaced, the injectors on a 1 motor are OK. Not sure why you had four sets, possibly poor diagnosis.

    I have only had one Allison out for repair and it was leaking.

    I have replaced my share of gear select switches but that was common in the early 2000's and usually after snow/ice or deep mudding.

    Thats what i was thinking on the injectors unless you bought a set of re-manufactured ones, i had a friend go through 3 sets before spending the money on the new oem ones from the dealer he has had 25k~ miles no problem with them

    Where can you get the aftermarket injectors and how much are they? My dad has a 03 Dmax with 180k on it and the previous owner got 2 of the injectors replaced under warrenty before 100k, but now it's starting to smoke white and smell diesel'ly at an idle. We're thinking he has one thats staring to leak at idle since it still runs good and good fuel mileage and is not filling the oil pan with diesel.
