E46 injectors

e46 325 cab 2004 95K

I may be removing the inlet manifold to do the CCV system so is it right to replace the injectors ?
The car has 96K and when it stops smoking is really sweet but I do have a budget so can anyone suggest / say if the ones on e-bay will be fine ??

Thanks for this . :clap: :clap:

No reason to replace them at 95k miles, they are one of the components that will usually outlast the engine itself

May be worth contacting Injectortune and getting them cleaned.

Really strange but that morning she smoked like an arse for a good mile and has not ever since, in fact she has never run as good :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:
I mean from when I bought her over a year ago.
Me and her indoors "might" have gone for a run out last Thursday and she was (if we were out) the best she has ever been, close to my 330 sport.
Strange.

Sounds like you might have given it an 'Italian Tune' without knowing it :D I do it to SWMBO's car now and again and she always says something along the lines of "don't know what you did but it goes better than it has done for ages" winkeye

Italian tune ??
SWMBO`s ?

The guy who looks after her changed a pipe two weeks previous and the tick over has been sublime since :cool: :cool:
Now the engine has started to behave, the gearbox has followed suit , they are now talking to each other and not arguing winkeye winkeye
