Err I would tend to disagree there.Ive read the tech bulletin on this and due to the way these new injectors are designed makes them incompatible with older spec ones.They cannot be adapted enough by the DME if only one Injector on one bank is changed and I'm lead to believe this can cause running /mpg issues.i think only the newest type of injectors will be supplied by the parts dept.
