Injector Reconditioning/Replacement
Does anyone here have any experience of where can recondition td5 injectors?

I'm replacing my cracked head soon, and think I might look at getting the injectors reconditioned while theyre all out.

I actually also have my original set of injectors after 1 developed a fault, might not cost me too much to do some kind of exchange with someone for a set of recon ones. 2003 Defender 90 Td5 CSW Belize Green - "Betty"

Potteries Diesel, just had mine done there. Swadlincote Diesel too.

Just make sure where you go isn't somewhere that just sends them to these main workshops. Couple 'factors' local to me, just send them to Swad when they accept public business themselves anyway!

Expect to pay somewhere around the £40-50 per injector. £250 odd for a replacement if one doesn't meet spec, though like rocking horse poo to get green tops!

Sure hickleys are around £150 for recon from memory. As far as I know they're one of the only diesel shops in the country with the correct gear to grade Td5 EUI injectors.

If Hickleys do a full set of tests and reconditions for £150 all in I'd jump on that price!

Both Potteries and Swad also have the full proper kit and like I say, they are all around the £40 mark per injector!

Blimey!

I was nearly double that though they were all refurbed at the same time.

Is that £190 for a replacement refurb, or to refurb your own?

Do they do anything to yours except testing? Does the £25 include clean/refurb to?

The £190 is for a refurb of my own. As I now have two sets, I discussed getting all 10 tested, and they'll tell me the best 5, and I can sell/keep as spares the other 5. 2003 Defender 90 Td5 CSW Belize Green - "Betty"

Hmm ... That's an expensive refurb if they use your own. £40 more and you'll be near the price of just getting a new one (if you can actually find stock ... depends if you have green or black tops).

Bit of a thread resurrection, has anyone had any injectors refurbished recently? I'm considering having mine done?
