Uks lowest price for N43 N53 N54 injectors Genuine
This is the cheapest supplier of Genuine injectors which are not through BMW at £288 per injector instock as such the geniune injector without the BMW Tax.
https://www.vitesco-technologies-aft...o_Complete.pdf Available from Merlin Diesel Systems (if you saw this day 1 they removed there listing) and PFJones https://www.pfjones.co.uk/bmw-3-seri...521220280.html £288 per injector This is by far the cheapest and comes from a reputable supplier in UK. BMW stopped them being sold in 2020 via the OE supplier but it looks like the Continental creation/sale of Vitesci technologies has opened up a new route to market outside of BMW. The injector has BMW marking underneath the plastic sticky label and is coming directly from the manufacturer who produce the injector, they are not refurbished or knock off they are geniune from the original manufacturer(aka Continental/VDO). As such waranty is direct with PFJones not BMW. These are genuine VDO injectors but VDO has spun off their business into a new company called Vitesco Industries. And These are the cheapest BMW genuine from a BMW dealer https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/145912292...mis&media=COPY Retails price from BMw is £514 +vat, John Knotss at Parks BMW Scotland can discount to £460.91 presently Decoupled rings are about £6 and are required for new injectors. |

Thanks for the info. Pity P F Jones don't appear to supply the injectors for the N54 engine (13538616079). It's a later iteration (index 12) than the N53 injector with further improvements and fits the N53 engine without issues. I've had N54 injectors in my N53 for 20,000 miles without a problem.

Personally I wouldn’t recommend going index 12 n54 injectors on a n53 they were released at the same time as index 11 n53 so it not like index 12 n54 is better than index 11 n53 (a common misconception though) and there is obviously a technical difference between the platforms which resulted in a different injector.
As to whether they work or if there are any issues it’s hard to know the real answer unless your bmw/continental engineer, al we can tell is BMW/vdo chose to keep 2 separate product lines. N54 demands more fuel and conversely n53 demands less fuel particularly when running stratified. It’s abit like using ferrar 599 injecectors In s65/s85 they fit but to get them to work optimally you need to change the fuel maps. |

Hmm you may be right Will, but there was talk a while back that BMW were to merge the two part numbers and supply just one injector for both cars. I did use the N54 partly because it was a 'higher' index, but mainly because at the time I fitted them, N53 injectors were unavailable (pandemic supply chain problems). Better to run N54s than to continue with leaking N53s and risk engine damage I felt...

I read the same it was speculation on a forum post I believe rather than anything official, as the N53 injector was massively back ordered with no lead time back in the period covid. Given that it’s working it likely that the flow rates are similar. I’m actually way more hopeful on this platform now the injectors are back available from manufacturer who make them. It would be really easy for bmw to EOL the injector and then the engine wouldn’t be repaired able. At 600£ list for an injector they are effectively saying that anyway. BMW seem to be hiking allot of standard service items. Eu5/6 injectors have a 400% markup over Bosch oem. Similarly e65/s85 injectors are back order and are massively overpriced and oem injectors I don’t believe is available from Bosch presently as a direct order - so it’s actually cheaper to order Ferrari 599 injectors which physically the same but a different flow rate. |

Latest iteration of the N53 index 11 injector?
Quote:
May you please confirm if the BMW Continental / Vitesco Technologies Petrol Injector A2C9521220280 (continental part number) is in fact the 13537589048-11 injector. Ie the latest version made for the N53? The number cross references on the PF Jones website but I cant get a straight answer from anyone and my poor car is desperate for 6 new injectors ![]() Many thanks!! Paul |

My understand is Yes - it’s the oem and production so it’s been index 11 since approx 2015.
When I spoke to Merlin diesel they said that a sticky label is over the bmw branding which is what it stamped with. |
