Hilux D4D bad fuel Injector Problem
Like all new-vehicle dealers, Knight’s Toyota (Leongatha, VIC) service their customers’ vehicles — but these days, they do something a little different. After using CEM’s products to fix a stubborn Hilux D4D fuel injector problem, they saw a chance to improve their customers’ performance and driveability by building some of CEM’s products into routine servicing.

CRD Fuel Enhancer will help eliminate D4D Injector Problems. Satisfaction Guaranteed
Simply add CRD Fuel Enhancer to your diesel tank to restore problem injectors.
Delighted customers talk, and word of mouth (the cheapest form of advertising) has boosted business for Knight’s Toyota.
Recently, a customer brought in a 2008 Hilux common rail diesel (CRD) with a severe injector rattle. Tristan Wilson of Knight’s said it “was rattling, shaking and knocking a lot!” CRD injectors should read feedback values within -1 to +1. These were off the scale — -5 to +5. Since Knight’s had already eliminated CRD rattles in several vehicles with CEM’s CRD Fuel Enhancer, the owner was willing to try it rather than fit new injectors at nearly $1000 each.
At the next service interval, the Hilux returned — still running CRD Fuel Enhancer, and with one very happy owner. The injectors were retested, and this time the feedback values came back perfect: well within the -1 to +1 range.
After confirming a healthy fuel system again, and since the vehicle had accumulated 167,000km, it was recommended to clean the engine of any sludge and gunk build-up with CEM’s Flushing Oil Concentrate, and then follow up with AW10 Antiwear in the new oil.
But first — a dyno test, which showed a healthy 97.6kW at the rear wheels.
An hour later, the flush and an oil service with AW10 Antiwear-treated oil were done, the engine was back at operating temperature, and the Hilux went back on the dyno. The result: 105.4kW — up 8% — purely from cleaning out deposits and improving lubrication. Knight’s dyno gets a fair bit of use, and Tristan was impressed: “From experience, brand new Hiluxes we have put on the dyno are only making 70 to 85kW at the rear wheels. So the results of your products on a car that has done 160,000km are absolutely outstanding! We have never seen a stock Hilux make this much power!”
