Reviews of OEM Volkswagen fuel injector

When it comes to the injectors, I highly recommend you get OEM VW. I've had issues with the OEM/OES injectors. Enough, that I rather pay the 100 +/- difference and get them with the VW stamp of approval.

At some point VW had a problem with the injectors. They always replaced the faulty one. A short while later the same car was back in the tow truck. The next injector was replaced. A coworker had his car repaired three times for the same problem.

I recently had a similar situation to yours with different codes. I stalled my 1996 GTI VR6 trying to back over a chunk of ice. When I started it back up it sounded like it was running on only a few cylinders. It would only start with my foot to the floor. The codes I had suggested a short in the fuel injector circuit.

So problem was solved and car is now stage 1 and runs great last 15000km. problem was faulty injector. We have swapped injector with right one and as I said car runs great.

This happened on my 2021 atlas under 15000 miles - took to dealer and replaced 3 failed fuel injectors. Rode like a new car and no more stuttering or stalling.

I have a 2018 Tiguan and it started having the same issues every so often, then suddenly on the highway it went into limp mode restricting the engine to 4K rpm... turns out two cylinders weren\u2019t receiving fuel so those two injectors had to be swapped... under warranty thankfully!

Up until a little over 45k miles, I was impressed that nothing had gone wrong. Then a little while back, it started to get a misfire. It was discovered that one of the fuel injectors needed to be replaced. That was a fairly expensive repair especially for a car with such low miles.

I pulled the fuel injector rail and reconnected everything outside of the engine and found 2 of the reconditioned injectors were not firing even when switched with working ones.

It was the fuel injector #2. The repair was covered under the warranty extension issued by VW last year.

Good news. I had my 4 injectors replaced at 18K and my intake manifold replaced at 26K.
