upgraded headbolts??

06 with 125K Kilometers. I just got my Hg's done and the service manager said ford upgraded their headbolts so they wont stretch as easily, not sure I beleive him though, any truth to this??? Also on the service invoice, it says they renewed 2 injectors. What do they mean by "renew"? new o-rings maybe?? there's no injectors on the parts list

usually "renew" means rebuilt.

what he said.

Check the parts and look for part number 4c3z 9e527 ??? that would be an injector.
other then that I have no idea what renew an injector would be. we dont reman them in house. all we can do is install new o-rings and a copper washer

What people are seeing is "updated headbolts" on ebay by scammers trying to con people.
