Frequently Asked Questions

Questions, Answered

Yes. And we encourage you to ensure your vehicle is serviced at the proper interval.  New transmissions are not cheap! 

Typically, yes. If one fails the others are typically close behind. Doing all eight at once saves you money in the long run.  It is a labor intensive repair that you don’t want to pay for each time an injector begins to fail.  We will give you an honest recommendation based on your scenario. 

A CP3 conversion is one of the most common reliability upgrades to consider because the factory CP4 injection pump has a reputation for costly failure. When a CP4 fails, it can send metal through the fuel system and damage the injectors, rails, and lines, turning one failed pump into a major repair.
