What the flark is going on out there?
Perth rip off week?
Ok check oil pickup, with torch, while/after draining oil. It should be clear.
Crew, don't panic about this unless you have a 2006-2007 which has not has the copper seats removed.
02/2008 onwards its just a quick check, as its worth the 10 seconds.
IF, for some odd reason it's blocked, I charge 1hr to remove the sump & clean the pickup, that's all it takes.
You do not have to replace the oil pickup.
Injector diagnostic test anything from free, $50,$80,$100, anything more & tell them their dreaming.
New injectors, pipes, seals & gaskets, egr clean, plate up, etc, professional job if you can find one there, should its no more than about $3k
If you are unsure, you can call me for some free expert advise.

Just found the pictures I took of the first job I did on my 120 after getting it, thanks to advice from PP's, I dropped the sump and found this,
before and after a good clean.

When I did the injectors 4 months later number 1 was passing, 2, 3 and 4 where good.
Inspections and oil change ever 6 months show no further build up.
