Hyundai i20 Fuel Injectors
Fuel Injectors for the Hyundai i20 — new, used and aftermarket stock, quoted once we know which i20 you are running
What Are Hyundai i20 Fuel Injectors?
Fuel injectors atomise fuel into the combustion chamber of your Hyundai — petrol 1.4 MPi and 1.6 T-GDi use port or direct injection, while 1.6 CRDi and 2.0 CRDi diesels run high-pressure common-rail injectors. Hyundai Creta diesel injector faults are legendary — a whole forum genre is built around them.

How we match fuel injectors to your i20
What changes across the range
i20 owners are usually surprised by how much turns on the generation code — PB, then GB, then the current BC3 all sold here.
The PB and GB are different cars underneath despite the shared badge, so a part listed simply as "i20" is not automatically the right one — the generation code decides it.
Worth knowing: the i20shares its Kappa and Gamma engine families with the Kia Rio.
What we check on fuel injectors
- •The generation code, because i20 parts lists split on it
- •The engine family — this i20 was sold with Kappa 1.2, Gamma 1.4 and Kappa 1.0 T-GDi (N Line)
- •The engine code, and whether the car is CRDi diesel, GDi or conventional petrol
- •Whether the car is pre- or post-facelift within its generation
In South Africa the i20 is mostly a high-mileage commuter hatch that spends its life in stop-start city traffic, which is why wear items move faster on an i20 than on almost anything else Hyundai sells here. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Hyundai i20 Fuel Injectors FAQs
Will fuel injectors from another i20 fit mine?
Not automatically. The i20 sold in South Africa as PB, then GB, then the current BC3, and the PB and GB are different cars underneath despite the shared badge, so a part listed simply as "i20" is not automatically the right one — the generation code decides it. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
What should I send you when asking about i20 fuel injectors?
The VIN is the single most useful thing — a photo of the plate is fine. Failing that, the generation code and the engine code off the block. The i20 ran as PB, then GB, then the current BC3, so the generation is what narrows the search.
How much does a Hyundai fuel injector cost in South Africa?
Real SA pricing — Hyundai Getz/i20 1.4 16V injectors run from R450, aftermarket units around R1,299 and performance units R3,050-R3,100. Used sets of four (i20/Accent/Sonata) run from R499. Send your VIN and engine code for exact quote.
What are the symptoms of a bad fuel injector?
Rough idle, misfire on one cylinder, black smoke from diesels, fuel smell under bonnet, hard starting and P030x fault codes. Hyundai Creta 1.6 CRDi injectors have a famous failure pattern — leak-back tests and a diagnostic scan pinpoint the culprit in one visit.
How much does it cost to replace Hyundai fuel injectors?
Parts run R450 per injector for Getz/i20 1.4 16V up to several thousand each for Creta CRDi. Labour is typically two to three hours plus ECU coding for diesel injectors. Quote per set of four — it's rarely worth replacing just one.
Can Hyundai fuel injectors be cleaned instead of replaced?
Yes — ultrasonic cleaning restores flow on petrol port injectors if the nozzles aren't damaged. For CRDi diesel injectors with internal leakage or stuck needles, cleaning won't fix it. SA injector specialists in our supplier network offer clean-and-test services.
Do new Hyundai diesel injectors need coding to the ECU?
Yes — every CRDi diesel injector has a flow-calibration code laser-etched on the body that must be programmed into the ECU. Without coding, fuel trims go out and you'll run rough or in limp mode. Any SA Hyundai specialist with GDS (Hyundai's Global Diagnostic System) can do the coding.
