Hi,
What exactly was the type of bio diesel you were using? That can make a difference on the warranty.
I have found that there is a big difference. Because, "soy" diesel is generaly under refined and is corrosive. I haven't had any problems with actual bio diesel as I run it in my Mercedes Benze 240D. I have been informed to stay away from places that advertise as Soy, and go to where they advertise bio. I have been putting ninety miles a day on my Benze. I also have a nieghbor who is running it in his Duramax and likes it. I am planning on getting a Duramax and asked my local Chevy dealer about it and they said it shouldn't matter. Somewhere, I have an article on the differences in "bio". I will try and find it and get back. Have you checked anywhere else such as other dealers who aren't aware of your specific problem? Maybe there is a service bulletin on those injectors. And they are using the bio diesel as an excuse to get out of warranting your truck. I hope this helps. And now you have me curious, so I am going do some more research too.
Dan
