Default Any GM techs on here from SE PA, MD?

Got an 03 2500HD duramax that has dropped 3 injectors already (had one replaced and diagnosed 2 others going bad). Main symptom is heavy smoking.

GM extended the injector warranty for 7yr/200K and this truck is still in that window for a few more months.

Got the runaround at one dealer (we had to pay for the first injector replacment and just had a "cleaning" done for the other two)

I want a 2nd opinion...

I just looked I know Before GM wanted you to replace all the injectors. Now they are saying that they want you to clean then and then only replace it cleaning doesn't get the balance rates in line.

Is it a Chevy or GMC. I work at a GMC dealers so I can't really do warrenty on Chevy's. I have 2 buddies that work at a Chevy Dealer in MD also.

Its a chev. the cleaning helped for a while but its back to its old smokin' ways. IIRC they charged several hundred for the cleaning too...

what dealer does your friend work for?

if they weren't so damnned expensive, I'd do it myself...but the injectors are about 2400 for the set.
