The injector type actually changed between the 2000 and 2001 model years.

I did, and they're genuine brand new Bosch fuel injectors for less than some places charge for used/"rebuilt" ones.

When I check today, I don't seem to see them except for some un-named EBay sources.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hi Folks, I am looking to replace the injectors on my 2001 996. While the stock mk 1 injector (996-606-132-00) is quite expensive at upwards of $180, my understanding is that the mk 2 injector (996-606-132-01) will fit with some minor modification to a groove that holds a retaining clip. I checked on line a few months ago and they were available new (I do not want rebuilt) from some of the usual parts suppliers for around $40. When I check today, I don't seem to see them except for some un-named EBay sources. Anybody know of a reliable source?
Thanks!!
Check with Jason at Warehouse33auto.com. He shows the Mk1 Bosch injectors for a very reasonable price. Don't think they are rebuilt but I would ask. He is a good person to work with.
Thanks Jason. I am assuming these are the mk 2 injectors (3.6L). Any comment on the fitment to mk 1 3.4L engines. I understand that there is a groove that may need to be modified a bit but that all other aspects are a fit, including the electrical connector.
Cheers!!
That would be an excellent tech writeup that could help all 996.1 owners... if you go down this route, can you document it.
I think Jake Raby or Tony Callas have posted that it works. I just don�t think we�ve seen a writeup or video on it.
Here�s another idea - I�m one of several people that have 996.1 parts motors: if someone with a junk/failed 996.2 injector wants it send it to me, I can try to modify it to fit, install it in the parts motor, take lots of pictures, then post it here for future reference.
This was just covered in another thread, the DME can correct the pulse width for the 3.6 injectors in a 3.4.

Yes, mine came in a Bosch box with a hologram and ID number.
You can confirm the number on Bosch's website.
I did, and they're genuine brand new Bosch fuel injectors for less than some places charge for used/"rebuilt" ones.
I believe they’re a few cc higher than the mki injectors but considered somewhat of an upgrade. I was in the middle of doing this but have decided to hold off as I’m contemplating doing a m97 3.8 swap. I would, hands down, use the mkii injectors over the .1. I would imagine on top of a few more cc flow that the .2 has a better spray pattern.
This injector stuff is confusing.
Everything I've read says the Mk 2 injectors are the reasonably priced ones and the Mk 1 injectors are the expensive ones. Looking on the Sonnen Porsche website I see this:
996.606.120.01 Mk 1 $76.71
996.606.122.00 Mk 2 $235.91
Also, for those that have bought the $30ish Mk 2 Bosch injectors where are they made?
I see there are some being sold on Ebay that are made in China. That's not necessarily a deal breaker but I'm curious to know.
So I just received my set of 6 white fuel injectors (0 280 156 053) for my 2001 which currently has the white injectors. The injector type actually changed between the 2000 and 2001 model years. I got these from German Auto Supply who were the only guys I found who had 6 in stock. The set of six cost $210($35 each). The injectors came in a Bosch box with the hologram and identification code which checks out as authentic on the Bosch web site so although they are made in China, they are authentic Bosch. In fact the picture of the 2000 year injector on the German Bosch website is of an injector with China embossed on it so maybe they are all made in China now? In any case, one of the other suppliers who is out of stock told me that Bosch wont sell them any more of these, they will only sell them OEM porsche (i.e. this injector with the Porsche part number) which retail at $300. So if you want new MK2 injectors better jump all over this while you can.
Cheers!!
It is apparently a pretty simple mod which involves opening up one of the retainer grooves on the MKII injector. I recall Jake Raby saying that he was contemplating doing a video on the procedure.
I'd like to see that video, the mk2 injector is better by simply being all plastic as the mk1 suffers corrosion , if it's also slightly higher rated and has a better spray pattern then that's another bonus!! Hope Jake does the video !!
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
