I just completed a carbon cleaning with an intake cleaner with PEA. Worked great. I have before and after pictures. All was good....right. WRONG. Oil analysis showed the hard particulate concentration in the oil skyrocketed from 2k to 120K. I change the oil and it dropped to 12K. My engine retains 10% of the oil. I flushed the oil again and another filter to get it down to 7k and another filter change brought it down to 4k. GDI soot is much different the diesel soot and much more difficult to remove and filter out and much more damaging. Use mechanical cleaning when ever possible. A chemical cleaning was done on my engine at 78K miles, at 87K it required a timing chain replacement due to so much wear and slippage.
Anyone whos actually walnut blasted carbon build up knows that no chemical in the world would be able to remove the carbon build up on the valves. The stuff is so stuck you literally need a pick tool to help get around the edges of the valves as the walnut blasting still only picks up 85% of the build up .
Winston from UK Carbon Clean did an epic job on my E46 325i. Felt INSTANTLY faster, pulled harder and revved more smoothly. Even sounds better! I highly recommend getting it done! Engine now feels like new despite 140k on the clock!
Yep I got 86k on my S5and I don't know what all these people are bitching and moaning about because my car for $100 runs brand new no hesitation I love it
@@tvbridge i find it funny that you ask me that two years after i made the comment haha. it feels a bit better after its done but it doesnt last long at all, at least on my s5
Smoke and Mirrors, Placebo Effect, Miss Direction ------ Pick one or all 3. The HHO cleaning only cleans the tops of pistons and the face (bottom) of the intake and exhaust valves and the injector tips and that's it. Any noticeable change after this treatment is a short lived placebo effect and nothing more. The only true way to clean the intake track/port and intake valves is by manual method with chemicals and pics or with media blasting with walnut shells. Walnut shell blasting for carbon cleaning has been adopted by corporate BMW as a regularly scheduled procedure.
I pick number 4 none of your answers because I just got it done and I saw it with the borescope before and after they got 95% and $400 not tearing the motor down not paying a thousand to $2,000 and not dumping squirrel food in my motor I'll take it every time
@@ifyacantduckit7755 your an idiot. You dont pay $2000 to get it done . Most shops do it for $800.

Yh, I have 2 friends, both ex Audi mechanics with 38 years experience between them. I mentioned this about my S5 and they said don't bother, it may feel better after but not for long, it cleans maybe 10% of what it really needs. Also told me of a few horror stories.

I don't know I just got it done the other day and my car runs brand new compared to what it was and I'm at about 86k.. I paid 90 bucks and I am certainly going back in about ten thousand miles and having done again. To me it's literally a tenth of the price and I don't have to spend my time or pay somebody else for their time just to crack open my motor and then dumped squirrel food in it but if you'd rather go that route shoot knock yourself out
@@ifyacantduckit7755 dump squirrel food in it… why order a supercharger for more power if its just going to put air bubbles in your engine. Get air from an electric leaf blower for real power.
@@ifyacantduckit7755 its all mental. IF you've ever walnut blasted , youll know that no chemical would just remove the carbon build up. Even when walnut blasting , it takes about 30 min per valve because you need to walnut blast 2-3 times each value, then use a pick tool to help loosen the carbon. Then repeat the walnut blast and vacuum. Don't be so ignorant to think removing the intake manifold of the engine and putting it back together hurts it lmao. How do you think cars get maintained ... Thats like saying servicing the timing belt is not good because you have to open up the engine. When you shoot the walnut , you also have a vacuum connected to it . Fuel system cleanings are for idiots that get sold it . I use to work at Mr.lube and they use to tell us to sell it since their was just a huge markup on it.
Think they should increase the cleaning time to two hours.Reason for this is someone has used one of these machines and then cracked open the injector ports of the v8 and it still had about 40% of carbon left
Omg lol. This ‘Adrian’ guy lives and covers the Leicester area. When asked him about direct injection engines and how the clean benefits them, he blocked us on Facebook 😂😂
William Magrath 18months on and cannot complain, in that time only the coolant pump has failed but it’s not a known issue just bad luck i guess! It’s a great car, find one with decent service history and you won’t be disappointed!
it's hydrogen and some other chemicals that's the way they do it now anyways and it works great that worked on my car and it runs like a brand new car almost there's absolutely zero hesitation I'm at 86 K miles and it's like you just came off the line
1st rule. Never buy another Audi . Worse engineering ever. 2nd rule never buy a GDI engine. Problem solved. Of the 20 some cars and trucks I've owned, my Audi A8L is by far the worse purchase I've ever made. Hell, my Landrover was more reliable as poorly over engineered as they are.
There's your problem and I can't even believe you you bought an A..... 8... An A.. 8so yeah they're engineering goes to all there s an RS models not their lowline entry-level we don't give a damn models it's like getting mad at Ford and saying the Ford fiesta you bought didn't live up to its potential and because it wasn't smoking WRX or STI the engineers are just idiots and it's a waste of.. no you bought a piece of shitt to begin with and every brand has it a piece of shit model for goofballs that want to be a part of that exclusive club but really can't be idiot
No it's not I just got it done and have video evidence besides the evidence coming from the damn pedal.. you're just saying that because everybody else is and everybody else hasn't tried it but I have and I'll speak on it you are fake news

Try some sodium hydroxide (oven cleaner) on it & see.

Honestly catchcan and full carbon clean

We used to run HHO in cars for a week, at least, to see what difference they made.

Why workd on my S5 just fine
Waste of money on tfsi engines as the hydrogen doesn't get any the carbon deposit in the inlet manifold
Where does all the carbon in the injectors disappear to once cleaned 🤔
Out the exhaust as smoke as it's supposed to.
And did you see any difference after the carbon clean at all?
Just found this video.. I was there by coincidence..
Have you got the part numbers at all for the dab upgrade parts you used? Its the only upgrade i think my car needs!
Also interested to know..
after looking for nice second hand one I found out I pay 5.5K taxes a year and insurance a year...
This was done on an S5? This is more like SSSSSSSSnake Oil!!!! lol
He just played you with his bogus science lol
Did your MPG improve after the cleaning?
Joe Smalley MPG remained the same
Ive done my car BMW E90 wow boy I see some results
Hi Guys, i'm thinking of buying myself one of these, how's the car going now?? Any big issues?? Thanks :)

Was the cost of this mentioned at all? Sorry if I missed it
£100
What a load of bollocks
what clean the Hydrogen or Oxygen ?
it's hydrogen and some other chemicals that's the way they do it now anyways and it works great that worked on my car and it runs like a brand new car almost there's absolutely zero hesitation I'm at 86 K miles and it's like you just came off the line
Selling Snake Oil! Every carbon clean video shows no performance gains or removal of deposit
Wait!! so you STILL had to get "DUCT tape" for it to be sealed properly? Rubbish!!!
cheap fuel = sainsbury diesel. its the cheapest for a reason
stock exhaust?
nils yep! no mods yet....
Guys That Drive thanks! Love the Sound
Thats call hho.
Clean your engine instead replacing the parts. Proof in Carbonbusterengine.com Las Vegas
