First set dumped fuel into the crankcase, on vacation and two different dealers said it was ok to drive it... Replaced all 8 @ 70,000.


Came home with a knock, 3000 miles later it was growing into a bad knock, dealer stated it was the injectors, # 7 was bad again. Replaced all 8 with the "Newest design" Knock still there,,, You should have seen the look on the service managers face when I pointed out the knock.. Chevy said they would either extend the engine waranty to 150,000 miles or give me 2000.00 off a new one.....


This truck is on the 3 set of injectors with 73,000 miles..


My new 04 lly has 3,000 miles. So far, so good :)

Travis, Do you have any fuel system mods. Secondary filtration and/or lift pump. The reason I ask is that I have a friend who had 180K last I talked to him and he is completely stock. I figure he's either lucky or we have some darn good fuel in our area. Hope it's the second reason.

Im new to this forum, i need to ask a question....


Im looking to buy a 2003 Chevy 2500HD Duramax/Allison 4x4 E-Cab w/69000 miles, What are the odds of me haveing injector trouble?

Based on this thread you should have a pretty good Idea. I recently bought a very similar sounding truck, and lost an injector not long after. Its a gamble.

02 Truck at 44,000 miles

No injector problems. Last week had Marco Polo
test my injectors with one of those fancy computers
and all of them were perfect and within spec.

Other stuff..........

Picked up my new tailgate cables at the dealer.

Still on my original tires.... I'll probably hit wear
bars at 50,000.

Most of my mileage is with 10,000 trailer/toys load.

Love this truck......

2003 LB7 No injector problems at 26000 miles!


The 2001 was juiced at @ 93000 miles.
Always hooked up to 12-20000 lb trailer and I buy fuel all over east coast at various truck stops, generals stores etc. I change fuel filters every oil change at @6500 miles.
Dealer took pretty good care of me with the injectors ie. free rental car, one week turnaround etc.
I would buy another Duramax tomorrow if GM would just put one in a Suburban!

Yes, at 3785 miles

May not have been fault with injectors, but with GM dealer fraud instead.
Klondike Motors (GM dealer, Whitehorse Yukon) claimed to have changed all 8 injectors when truck quit at 3785 miles. Truck quit again 200 miles later, Inspection by independent certified mechanic claimed engine has never had a bolt touched with a wrench.

This was almost six months ago, truck still sitting, as GM is claiming fuel contamination, therefore no warranty.

Not taking any factors into account, such as year/motor/filter or multiple failures.
First 100 was 20 out 100. Second 100 was 25 out 100. So total of 45 out of 200.
So 22%, so far.

Yes. #7 injector stuck open at approx. 11000 miles, flooding the cylinder causing the piston and rod to crack/shatter on the upstroke. Engine replaced.


Still love the truck even after that happened. Free rental car from GM, Dealer asked about Banks stickers, tossed him a line of BS about how I like their diesel racing stuff. Tech said that the aftermarket toy had nothing to do with it whatsoever.
