This was the third 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 as had just purchased the car and wanted to make sure it had a clean bill of health so any issues identified could be sorted under warranty. Adrian was able to provide this reassurance. Great service as always an am sure we will be seeing Adrian again.

My 2008 Citroen C4 1.6hdi had the dpf light come on. The local garage cleared it but wasn't confident it would stay off. They told me to speak to the main dealers. In the end, I just got confused, mainly because neither of them told me what the problem was. Enter Adrian, after having read his website I felt confident that he would diagnose the fault. He arrived promptly and went about his work in a professional and friendly manner. The fault was diagnosed to a relay, he also did a carbon clean, the car is now a totally different car to when I bought it. It's much quieter and much more responsive as well. Would I recommend Adrian? In a heartbeat every time.

Had a carbon clean and diagnostic. Adrian is very professional and friendly. He is very knowledgeable and did a good job. My partner's Mazda 3 runs lovely after the service so she's very happy. We will use Adrian again in the future. Thank you, Adrian.

I had Adrian out to do a carbon clean on my 2011 nissan navara v6. I wasn't sure what to expect but Adrian found 3 fault codes (it had been in the garage for a full service the day before). He cleared these codes and gave advice on them. Truck starts better and drives a lot smoother now. Very happy with Adrian and his service.

Very impressed with Adrian and his knowledge and professionalism on the job. Highly recommend! I'd booked in 3 cars for an engine carbon clean, two petrol vehicles and one diesel ranging from 1996 to 2010, all with around 100k miles or more. Adrian methodically worked on each vehicle, whilst providing me a clear, consice and honest education in what the process actually does and what it doesn't. Following each car being completed he provided a print out and a digital copy of diagnostics and all the codes found on the ECU, which was very handy to have. Later that day after the appointment I found myself having to travel long distance and took the diesel. The comparison between before and after the carbon clean was astonishing. I found the car was providing better and smoother torque, faster throttle response, a slightly quieter engine and a much better and consistent MPG. I have to say its been worth every penny. Will definitely be using his services again in the future.
