Hello

Looking for a recommended diesel shop in SW MI to work my 04 chevy. Got 224,000 and got the smoking issue at idle. Orginal injectors, I assume i need a injector or two. Just looking for a reliable shop to do the repairs. I live near Jackson MI. Any thoughts or preferences of a shop would be helpful. thanks

Eric Merchant used to be highly thought of on the forums. I have done some business with them. I believe they know the duramax platform better than your average shop, but the are very pricey.

HSP but I would suggest replacing all 8 injectors if you think they are original with 224k. No reputable shop would do that job and only swap 2.

Tony up at DHD can do most any repair, bit of a drive from Jackson. Merchant would be closer than both DHD and HSP. I've never had Eric work on my vehicles but some friends have and were very pleased with the work done.

I had no idea, Joe. No malice intended.

Nice to know that people have another option.

Im not sure if DHD does repair work.
You should make a road trip sometime. Tony's shop puts Eric's to shame. His clean room for engine builds and his clean room for trans builds are pritty impressive. His shop is 50 times the size but he's working on everything from lawn & garden, ATV, watercraft, boats etc..
