Afternoon,
I wanted to pick your brain, I am new to the forum and appreciate the knowledge you have.
My truck started to get a P026D code I did some research on the internet and this forum, what I found was that I needed to replace my MAP sensor. Ok that was easy, I did that and the code came back in 2 days (less than 50 miles) I pulled it again and cleaned it, all ok and reset. came back in 5 minutes. I then did some additional research and I found that I should replace my fuel filter. So I then did that, mind you it said that I still had 20% to go before replacing. After replacing and resetting the fault(disconnected both batteries) the check engine light went away. I drove for 600 miles and it returned. At this point I am stumped, took it to the the local GMC dealership and they are saying that I need to replace my injectors.
Here is the kicker, this truck has 62,000 miles. it just came of extended warranty. Now they want me to spend $6500.00 to perform this repair.
my thoughts are that it is not the injectors at all, my truck does not smoke, misfire, burn fuel, anything. It runs perfectly fine except the check engine light.
I am looking for any ideas or experience before I drop that kind of money on a repair.
thank you in advance for any feedback you can provide.
