Default Update - Service Fuel Injectors Message - GS200t

I have a 2016 GS200t with 6,200 miles that I bought new. Today, I got a message that said the fuel injectors need servicing. Has anyone else had this message come up for service at such low mileage? I only use Top Tier premium fuel of 93 octane. I have a feeling if I bring it to the dealer they will want to do a service on the injectors at my expense. Thanks!

I have the same car and got the same message around the same miles. There is a TSB for that (see attached document). My dealer applied the TSB and removed the message. Never had any problem since then.

Thank you so much bb700092 for the TSB. I'll call my dealer in the morning and schedule an appointment. You made my day!

Default Update- Service Fuel Injectors Message - GS200t

I thought I'd give an update to the message I received last week that said to Service Fuel Injectors. I brought my GS200t in today and they reprogrammed the ECU. I've driven it 30 miles since I picked it up and everything is fine. Thanks again to bb700092 for the TSB. It was very helpful.

You are most welcome! Glad to help. My dealership did the same to my GS 200T.

I freaked out like you did when that message appeared on my screen. I searched the internet everywhere I could and found that document which gave me some relief. GS 200Ts are scarce, so there is not much info on them. Since the IS 200T and NX 200T share a number of components with the GS 200T, searching their forums might be useful.

I never thought to search the IS 200T and NX 200T forums. Thanks for the tip.
