I went down to my Toyota Dealer last week to order the parts to replace the injector seals from copper to Ali. Feeling a little disgruntled i decided to have a chat with the service manager as i felt i was shelling out on a fault that i felt rested with Toyota, kind of me bailing them out! I also told him my injectors were starting to rattle a little on a cold start. He was fully aware of the issue with copper seals and Engines going bang and he was also aware of the injector rattle which he said most pre 08 D4d's suffer from. "I agree and share your concerns with everything you have said" was his reaction,"How about we put a claim in with toyota for a full injector replacement". I explained that i was 18 months out of warranty and he realised that, but said that within 5 years and low millage (46000) i stood a very good chance.
Anyway today the claim has been excepted by toyota for complete change of all 4 injectors and pipes all FOC. Thats my seals well and truly sorted i think. While i would still have been better for toyota uk to do a full and proper recall regarding seals, i really cant fault this as its great customer service!
