Pretty much a copy/paste from my thread about expected injector life and if I should replace them during my Timing Chain job...just incase some of you are not following it and are curious what the chain slop/rattling sounds like, here's a video clip before the full timing chain, guide, and... -

5.0 Injector Lifespan? Worth replacing during Timing Chain job?
Here is the before video. It's a cold start, so it takes 15-20 seconds for the RPM's to settle to an idle. It sound exactly the same when it's warmed up. My mechanic said it's by far not the worst he's heard, but recommended I have the timing chain job done before it got too much worse. -

5.0 Injector Lifespan? Worth replacing during Timing Chain job?
Im having a full timing chain job done on my '12 LR4 next week (precautionary before it becomes a real issue other than annoying noise). I would like to have as much completed while the engine is opened up. It has 66k, what is the expected lifespan of the injectors? Is it worth having them...
