This was the second time Adrian has been out to do a carbon clean for us. Booking process was easy, Adrian is responsive to messages and very informative. Primarily had the most recent carbon clean for preventative/maintenance but have been really impressed with the improvements we have seen in how smooth/quiet the car runs now. Will be sure to ask Adrian to come round to do a clean on our other car as it approaches is warranty expiry.

I have been booked with Adrian for a carbon clean and can say that it’s totally worth every penny my car has unleashed her true power , better mpg and throttle response, really happy with it i was not expecting to be such a massive difference , engine it’s running really smooth and very responsive, been told that my car it’s running really smoothly by Adrian especially for the mileage that i have ( 152000, Bmw 530d GT) . Thank you very much Adrian and will definitely recommend you’re services to all my friends!

This is the second time I have used Adrian's services, today on two cars which have not previously had the service performed. Once again Adrian was very helpful, the diagnostics confirmed my suspicions about an issue I can now get fixed on one car, and showed a clean bill of health on the other. One car (a petrol 1.2 Ford Ka) is mostly used for city driving and has been absolutely transformed by the clean, now pulling strongly again and much quieter. The other (petrol 2.0 VW Arteon) was already in good shape due to being used mostly for long motorway runs, but is still a bit quieter and smoother after the work. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Adrian and F5ECC, I have previously and will do so again.

Engine carbon clean

I recently had my van in the garage for a few oil leaks and few other repairs. After repairing my van, the garage recommend my van had a carbon clean due to the build-up of carbon in my turbo pipe. Looked around and came across Adrian Charles of Engine Carbon East Midlands. Adrian who is very professional and very formative with the information/diagnosis of my van. He kept me up to date with everything he was doing and made sure I understood the information he was showing me. Since having the carbon clean I didn’t think I would see much of a difference in the running of my van. Believe I was wrong, maybe just my van but I could see a massive difference in my van's performance. Thank you, Adrian.

Adrian provides a thorough and professional service the carbon clean provided a noticeable difference in engine performance and the diagnostic explained a few things to keep a future eye on. Cannot thank him enough for such a thorough and professional service.

Adrian was booked to carbon clean my car; he arrived on time and the price was as expected, as he quoted in advance. Adrian texted prior to arrival so I knew when to expect him. He explained what he was going to do and if he would be able to clean my car engine. He completed the diagnostic tests and went ahead with the carbon cleaning. Throughout he was polite, personable; he answered all my questions honestly and gave me tips on how to maintain care of my car. She is an eleven year old MX5 that I've had from new and driven over 100,000 miles - I want to keep her running for at least double this, so Adrian's work and advice are invaluable. I would recommend this work and Adrian to anyone - I found him an exceptional, professional tradesman.
