Carbon is a natural by-product of burning fossil fuels in a combustion engine. Carbon buildup gathers over time and causes an engine to labour, vibrate and over fuel. This leads to excessive:

- rumble and shake
- fuel usage (declining MPG)
- smoke and emissions
- wear and tear on other components (engine mounts, etc.)
- DPF regeneration in Diesel vehicles.
- sluggishness, lag and sticking turbo

I've been having trouble with my golf GTI with carbon build up and over revving slightly, so I gave Adrian a call and he got me booked in. Adrian came to my home this morning to give my vehicle a check with his diagnostic machine and a engine clean out, Adrian showed me every step and I was very pleased, Adrian also shown me on his diagnostic machine all the fault codes the car previously had, and there was nothing majorly wrong with the car, Adrian also advised me to get my air mass sensor changed which would solve my over revving issue, very pleased with the service Adrian gave, would 100% recommend Adrian and the service he gives, outstanding and now my car is back to full power and runs smooth and can't hardly hear the engine! Excellent thanks again!

As well as fantastic knowledge and customer service , my car has been transformed. Mine has 200657 miles on it so needed some TLC and after Adrian came it now s runs quieter, smoother and feel a like it has had a new engine. I wasn't expecting to see such a difference so well worth the money!

Adrian arrived promptly and was professional throughout his time with us. We had two cars looked at. The Aygo has done over 100,000 miles and had a throaty girgle. After Adrian had worked his magic this changed to a gentle purr, so much better and incredible to see and hear the difference. We weren’t expecting the petrol car to clean up as much as it did. Next was my car, a few faults flagged up and over the past few weeks I have had a turbo lag appear. Again, Adrian worked his magic and the turbo lag has gone and is running smoother and quieter than before. I cannot recommend Adrian enough. He is knowledgable, professional and courteous. I was talked through every stage with clear details. You will not be disappointed with this service both with work carried out and customer attention.

Very professional approach all the way through. Adrian took the time to explain all elements of the clean to a level that could be easily understood. Most worthwhile £99 i've spent in some time as the results were instant. Honda Civic Type S GT-T 2.2 diesel engine noticed the response in power, and much quieter idle. Confident I'll see my MPG get back to where it was. A real credit to himself for his patience, even in the bitter cold and rain.

Adrian arrived promptly at the requested location to perform his services on 4 vehicles, I forgot to mention there was no access to power as he would have came with his portable generator, this was my fault entirely as I failed to correctly read the message. We soon went to another location where Adrian went to work on the vehicles, pleased that he performed a health check which shown no faults but I wasn’t expecting any as I decided to get this done after extensive research and I like preventive maintenance as I rely on my vehicles. After the work was completed all vehicles seemed much quieter and more responsive. Thanks again!!!

Thank you Steve for the review and was a pleasure meeting you all and working on your vehicles. Yes access to power is needed, but if not available then we can indeed bring a generator - change of location was no problem and glad to help.

Arriving bang-on time, Adrian happily demonstrated the equipment and how it worked. Around halfway through the clean, the ‘booming’ bass tone from the engine subsided to virtually nothing. He explained the chemistry behind what/why this was happening too - fascinating stuff. Initially the car drove a little better but a lot quieter. Serene on the motorway, it has changed the experience of my work commute no end. After a day or two of driving, I’m seeing and feeling the turbo engage around 300-400rpm sooner which makes town driving so much easier. When I buy my next used car, Adrian will be top of my list to call.

Adrian was bang on time and demonstrated the equipment and process as he set the equipment up. Throughout the process, he explained not only what was happening, but the chemistry as to how and why this process works. Approximately half way through the clean, the engine note changed from a ‘booming’ sound to the more traditional diesel sound, at idle. The drive afterwards showed a definite improvement in response but the greatest improvement was the noise. The cabin is now serene. Virtually no vibration can be felt through the steering wheel or gearstick, where previously they would shake. What impressed me about Adrian is that he made no false promises as to what was possible from a clean, and delivered on everything he said it would. An absolute professional, who loves his work. Not difficult to see why he won a Which award, only this month. Great work, thank you Adrian.

Cleaned the carbon and did the diagnostic test for my Lexus IS220d. Adrian explained every detail while he was doing the diagnostic and now I don't see any smoke.
