You can use ISTA to look it up if you want but anything before mid year 2014 should be EU5.

2012 car should definitely have EU5 injectors.

What's the difference between the 2 sets eu5 and eu6?
Wouldn't either set still work seamlessly as long as they are coded?

Different spray patterns between the eu5 and eu6 injectors that are controlled by different ECU's. Some fitted eu6's to pre lci model and problems running getting CEL and drivetrain malfunction.Can't be coded.

Thanks buddy.
Well if I have a 2012 I should be eu5?
I just want to do preventative maintenance and get them? My local indy said they aren't leaking so don't worry. That's not the point.

If no problem leave alone, my '13 pre lci every time I fill I add correct amount of red Redex.It protects your fuel system and primes your injectors. Still on original spark plugs, coils and injectors at 37k and hasn't missed a beat. If you still want to change them then only eu5 for pre lci.
You can as alternative prev' maintenance change the air filters, an often forgotten item and clean the two MAF sensors with the appropriate spray, an easy job and naturally the spark plugs if your motor's been driven hard and you do hear the odd stutter.

Are the later EU6 injectors less likely to go wrong than the ones in the earlier models?
