What makes an injector, or turbo 'go bad?' I am leasing an 05, and am afraid to buy it at the end. I put alot of money into it after I leased it. Spray in bedliner, coolant filter, receiver hitch, spalsh guards, bug guard, tool box etc. All with the intent to keep it. Now I'm afraid of the injectors going out, or the turbo failing.

Normal injector issues are rough running cold, excessive smoke or misfiring. As for what makes an injector go bad, excessive oil change intervals, wrong grade of oil depending on climate, excessive fuel filter change intervals and cheap aftermarket oil and fuel filters are on the top of my list.

The new flash is highly recemended by most people, I think my injectors might be showing signs of sticking, and that new flash is suppose to take care of that, so im probly going to try and get it one of these days.
