Fuel Injection Problems

Is anyone else having problems with their fuel injectors? I've had my SL about a month and just brought it in today for the second time for a bad fuel injector. I first encountered the problem last week when the car was stalling (seemed like it was starved for gas) and the check engine light came on. The dealer had to order a new injector and I picked it up 3 days later. I drove it 1 day and the exact same thing happened. I love this car and I'm not blaming the dealer but I'm starting to get ****ed. Comments anyone?

Haven't had this problem. Are you using the correct fuel octane?

I don't think it is an octane issue, the worst that would happen with the wrong octane is an engine knock.

I haven't had the issue either, maybe you have crap in your lines that keeps on clogging the injectors, ask the dealer to blow out the lines next time it breaks... just an idea

I don't know if it's the Fuel Injection, but My car has been stalling a few times already, and finally caused me to crash ripping my wheel off. Any comments?

I rolled 4k today. No mechanical problems yet. So far much better than my 2k1 AE experience.
