Why Book Us

‘Diagnose running issues, restore power, performance, fuel economy and lower emissions. It's essentially a health check and detox for your vehicle.’

Our cleaning service helps you with saving money on fuel, provides you with a quiet, smooth and reactive drive and helps deal with sticking turbos or MOT emissions failures.  

Plus, our engine carbon cleaning reduces the overall soot build-up that enters the EGR/DPF and inlet manifold. Helping the DPF last longer and saves fuel with fewer regenerations. 

Our diagnostic will identify the issues that may be causing the symptoms, plus any other hidden issues before they become a problem in the future.  

We offer a full diagnostic consultation to identify underlying issues that need addressing by the seller or if it’s under warranty. 

Our service helps avoid any problems by identifying DPF removal for example, failed sensors leading to DPF blockages in the future and failed components.  

If everything looks good, then get it clean for the journey ahead.  

Avoid the MOT failure & transform this into a pass! 

Failures or general smoke issues can be caused by malfunctioning or failed components and sensors, thermostat or carbon build up (which we can often identify with diagnostics.) 

With a combustion chamber causing over fuelling and increased milage causing increased emissions, we can clean with an Engine carbon clean.  

Are you planning a modification or remap? If so, you should get any faults diagnosed to recover lost power before increasing power. 

Cleaning up the vehicle stops the turbo from having to put in extra work post-remapping, increasing the longevity of the turbo.  

Diagnostics are essential. 

Whenever DPF is unable to regenerate, it’s due to a faulty sensor or component. In this situation, no matter what you may do, DPF will not regenerate and will shut down. Once the diagnosis has been completed and the odd parts have been substituted, regeneration can occur again. 

If the DPF soot content/back pressure is already too high then fixing the issues can still not allow regeneration, In this case it’s a last resort option of a DPF clean (unblock).

How and why does carbon affect my vehicle?

All combustion engines over time collect carbon deposits, which is a natural by-product of burning fuel. 

In this circumstance, dirty engines need to work a lot harder, which uses a lot more fuel, shakes and lumpy running and increased noise leading to increased emissions and eventually MOT failure. The more the vehicle runs poorly this can lead to more wear and tear on other engine components such as mounts, clutches etc.

An example of buildup present in the inlet pipework of a BMW 320d. This buildup is a combination of oil, grease, water vapour and carbon which has gathered from a combination of short journeys, poor quality fuel (with little/no additives present) and a dirty engine with increased emission levels. Regular engine cleaning would have helped prevent this gathering.

Why does it seem like this is only a recent issue (compared to 50 years ago)?

As fuel economy and emission targets have been stricter, modern components have been added to keep the soot within the vehicle rather than passing it out the exhaust like they did in the past.

Absolutely superb service. Leon turned up exactly on time and having kept me informed of our appointment with a reminder etc. Very friendly, helpful guy with loads of advice and runs his business in a very professional, adept manner that I find so often lacking in businesses today. Squared my 5 year old 60k mile Discovery Sport away and now it sounds beautiful and runs so much smoother. My range has already gone from 385 miles on a full tank to 440 miles (so the service will pay for itself in fuel saved in about 2 months) and I think that’s still going up as I run her in. I was a tad skeptical about the service before hand, but for such a cheap cost I thought it worth a try as the car was running a little ragged… I will definitely be using this service and Leon again, massively grateful, thank you!!
