    I always find it suspicious when they call every injector. Unless something really crazy happened, why would every injector fail.

    sounds like they are firing parts at the problem

    That doesn't sound right to me. There are a few Toyota techs on here that will hopefully chime in.

    Welcome to the forum. $5K sounds insane to me, I’d get another quote if I were you.

    Do you perhaps mean the high pressure fuel pump in the direct injection system? Like @Bishop84 said, it seems unlikely that all the injectors failed at once.

    X2...there's no way all of the injectors failed at the same time. Get a second opinion.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Maybe a new spark plug and coil would fix that. Good luck!

    Depending on how many miles it has, if one injector failed they may be recommending to replace the rest with the failed one.

    If there like a Honda…there all balanced/calibrated as a set…the only way they come is in a set of 6 for a v6… if one injector fails they all have to be replaced

    Sounds a little more in-depth than injectors. Hopefully it’s not the head or block….

    they are tuned to the engine, each injector is stamped and needs to be identified then replaced.

    Toyota does not recommend changing them as a set.

    I’m assuming they did and air/fuel ratio test…. Usually the misfire will occur on cold start… injector is leaking into the cyl at key off

    Oh ok.. I learned something there.. but if it was mine,with 160k with one already failing… I would seriously consider the other 5 since they will already be in there.. labor shouldn’t be anymore I wouldn’t think
