Adrian recently Carbon cleaned my van. He was punctual, offered excellent communication and his service improved the way that my van runs. The first thing Adrian did when I called was to ascertain that I had realistic expectations as to the benefits of a carbon clean. He is very honest, and certainly not just out to grab money. His service was extremely well organised and Adrian is very efficient. He carried out in depth live data analysis on the van whilst performing the clean, and shared relevant data/results with me immediately via WhatsApp. My van is now smoother, quieter and more responsive, and I am also now aware of another issue identified by Adrian which I can have repaired to save potential excessive wear on the engine. Adrian has since followed up via text message to ensure I am happy with everything. Adrian provides a top quality service on all fronts, and one which I will be sure to recommend widely. I will certainly use Adrian again without hesitation. I have used another company in the past for a carbon clean, and the experience was nowhere near to the service Adrian offers. You should book with confidence. Thanks so much!

I had my car Carbon Cleaned by Adrian and I cannot recommend this highly enough. He is very knowledgeable and explains everything about the process so you know exactly what is going on. The process has made such a difference to my car in terms of the smoothness and the power. Like the car is brand new. Thanks Adrian for the great job you did will be recommending this to everyone!!

The whole process right from the enquiry stage up to actually having to carbon clean process was excellent. Really good communication and Adrian arrived on time. During the clean Adrian explained each of the steps and showed the processes happening and the live data as it was happening. As for the results, Well, surprisingly it feels a LOT different. Lots more low end power and smoother through the whole rev range. Its lost that little jerking action when letting off the accelerator too. Time will tell on the MPG. Certainly a returning customer when the time arrives.

I contacted Adrian and explained the issues I had with my car. This could of been a number of things going on with it as the engine management light came on and the car was in and out of limp mode. I was informed it was the DPF by another party, but this was not the case. However, Adrian booked me in and I was sorted the flowing day. He ran the diagnostics and the fault was with the EGR Valve and not the DPF. Whilst he was here he also gave the engine a clean through (as he deemed it safe to do so). Upon arrival Adrian presents himself in a very professional manner. Nice clean and tidy van, uniform etc. He keeps your car protected from damage throughout the duration he is here by covering over or around the engine bay. After he is done, a full diagnostics report is sent to you for your reference. I now can go with confidence to get my car fixed with the issues that have been brought up through the diagnostics. Thank you Adrian for your service.

I've had a carbon clean done on my Mercedes C350 CDI twice now; once 18 months ago and once this month (June 2020). I put about 15k miles on the car each year and the difference in the engine after having this done is profound: a smooth startup with no shaking or labour, a quieter and effortless acceleration, and a noticeable improvement in fuel efficiency. Adrian isn't just a technician; he's a knowledgeable and approachable professional. I trust his opinion and the quality of his work. His understanding of my car is a massive reassurance and for anyone who likes to geek out, the level of data he presents on the car's performance and health is incredibly detailed. I'd strongly encourage you to make a carbon clean part of your servicing schedule. Great value and great service carried out by a brilliant professional. It's a no-brainer.
