I've made it to 495K on the original injectors and now runs a bit rough and at idle noisier than usual. Research tells me I have a bad injector(s). The one, by nearest the Fan has signs of leakage by the hold down fork/bolt. I'm thinking of replacing all 4, but wish to know if I need new O rings. The reman Bosch injectors come with copper washers.
BTW, I had to replace trany at 463K. Don't make them like they use to...LOL

The o-ring on the injectors is only to center it and keep debris from falling in the hole. But the injectors can be rebuilt by any Bosch certified shop for less than the cost of buying new.

I'm impressed at the total mileage though - have you replaced the valves? If not, PLEASE do, that is a major risk once they get above 200k miles, your mileage is way over that.
