i just got my 03 lb7 back from the dealer, i took it in for the same problem - smoke at idle only when at operating temp though, they told me since I only have 1, maybe 2 injectors leaking from the nozzle it is not covered by the 7/200k warranty, they say the only way they warranty them is if they are leaking from the upper part of the injector body which causes fuel to enter the oil. I might wait a month, dump some diesel into my oil and take it in again. what do you guys think?
my warranty is over in june.
