F5 Engine Carbon & DPF Clean

My TVR Griffith after being stored for the last 3 years failed it’s MOT on emissions. The garage had carried out numerous works trying rectify the issues with no success. I came across Adrian’s website and thought I’d give him a call. He visited the garage where the car was and carried out his carbon cleaning process. Even during the cleaning process the engine note had changed from slightly congested to smooth. The following day the garage performed another emission test and found that CO content had dropped from a MOT failing 3.8 to a pass of 2.3 ! Significant to say the least! A Knowledgeable guy carrying out a fantastic service, highly recommended.

Booked a clean with Adrian on my 2012 x5. I have used Adrian before but I didn't have any issues with the car but just fancied a maintenance clean. Wow...the car is now smoother and more responsive. Again the service and approach is top notch. A great service from Adrian and I would highly recommend. Book a clean today you won't regret it.

Adrian performed a live diagnostic and an engine carbon clean on my 2013 Mercedes A Class I have had a warning light for some time and the Garages have always blamed the EGR and after lots of work they could not work out what was wrong. After following his videos closely for a few months i reached out to Adrian to book him in to look at the car and see if he could figure out the problem. Arrived on time and got straight to work diagnosing the fault's the car had. Adrian took the time to explain the faults what the likely cause might be. This was the main reason why I wanted Adrian to do the job, his knowledge and attention to the detail is amazing! With the live data and Adrian's knowledge it looks like the issue might be electrical instead of mechanical and with this i can now get the car booked into the garage to fix. The carbon clean has made the car noticeably smoother now when driving. Adrian checked in with me later in the day to ask how the cars was driving which was a great touch and great service. Would defiantly recommend Adrian and will be using him in the future.

Had engine carbon clean out to me today to do my 2012 Audi A5 2.0 tfsi and my partner's 2011 Kia Sportage crdi. Very glad I booked Adrian in having followed his videos closely for a couple of months. Great service. Arrived on time. Instantly got to work diagnosing the fault's I had and explaining where each one was coming from or what the likely cause was. This was a massive part of the service and why I wanted Adrian to do the job, as he explained everything in detail. The carbon clean itself was great. It was more of a maintenance/prevention thing for me but I must say, the car is noticeably smoother now when driving around. Payment was simple with a card machine upon completion of works. Adrian checked in with me later in the day to ask how both cars seemed which I thought was a nice touch to include some after service.

Professional from start to finish, explained everything going on with the car and certainly knew what he was talking about. The car is running a lot smoother and quieter now Would definitely use again

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.

Just bought a car and found had many faults coming up on computer everything checked and reset also carbon clean. Car runs alot smoother and more fuel efficient Highly recommended Thanks Adrian Keep up good work

Brilliant and friendly service from Adrian! Would recommend without a 2nd thought. Car running a lot better.

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.

Son recommended Adrian,first class professional service. Kept me in touch with the ETA which was brilliant. Found me the sensor problem fault on the parking sensors,saved me going toLand Rover to be told the same. Would recommend to anybody

Went and had my car done on the way up to Scotland from Ipswich and managed to get it up to forty six mpg on a run. Would recommend highly. Great job.

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.

Good time keeping when arriving very informative on doing tune up and problems found. very happy with proformance of car now. Diagnosed the problem saving me a lot of money and garage time wasters. been to two garages and cost lots of money so far, now I have the right information I can get the car fixed properly. would highly recommend Adrain to do this tune up and engine clean for anyone.

So after a recommendation from a friend I gave Adrian a call regarding an engine light that came on whilst accelerating Had a chat over the phone and he booked me in for a couple of days later Adrian arrived 10 mins earlier than planned but had texted me to let me know if it was OK When he got here he diagnosed as turbo was over boosting and gave my honda crv 2.2 ictdi sport a carbon clean and removed the engine light After a very informative 45-55mins work everything was done Adrian left I took the car out for a drive to replicate what had brought the engine light on in the first place No problems there also I'm getting on average an extra 10mpg around town and the car feels very responsive I would recommend Adrian if you have engine lights on or your car van etc isn't running at its full potential

What can I say? My Audi S5 was running a bit rough and occasionally the check engine light came on. Now I already know this chap has a great S5 too and know he knows his stuff. I had a feeling my symptoms were related to carbon buildup so thought I’d give this a whirl. Well it’s certainly made a huge difference to the car! It’s like night and day, the slight misfires I had have disappeared and it’s as smooth as silk. I’m still going to get a full manual carbon clean do as this treatment doesn’t do the manifold or behind the inlet valves but honestly it’s the best £90 I’ve spent on the car. He also did my supercharged Range Rover which I thought was running great anyway but that also now is even smoother and picks up much quicker as well. Don’t hesitate to get your pride and joy done too. Top marks

Just had Adrian perform a carbon clean and diagnostic test on my ford mondeo , after using adrian back in 2016 on a previous car i new i could see results again very genuine guy who knows his stuff , talks you through any codes or issues he might come across. just got back of a drive to Try the car after the clean , All I can say Is wow it has made a big difference in throttle response , alot smoother and quiet now when being driven and idling and a flat spot I had thought 3rd/4th gear has now gone. Will definitely use again.

Adrian was brilliant from start to finish. Communication was spot on from booking to completion. I had 2 cars done at the same time one being a taxi which I use for work. Initially Adrian carried out a diagnostics which came up with a couple of faults which helped incredibly as I was having issues with the coolant system. With this information we have narrowed down the on going issues I had. Once the carbon clean was completed I noticed the engine was quieter at idle. Upon test drive I noticed the throttle was way more responsive than prior to the clean. I have only driven less than 100 miles but I am pleased with results. Again thank you to Adrian for making the process easy and understandable. It’s good to see someone selling something that they exactly have the knowledge and information they can pass to the customer which is reassuring. Would use and recommend again 100% 5 stars ⭐️

Extremely professional, arrived on time, kept me updated with ETA and fitted me in very quickly. Adrian talked me through the whole process, he did a full diagnostic, explained everything thoroughly and cleared the codes. The carbon clean took approx 60mins, now car runs lovely and smooth with improved responsiveness and a slightly better mpg figure. Adrian has looked after 2 of my cars so far. - He comes highly recommend as the service is second to none and really knows his stuff and just a nice genuine guy. Thank you Adrian! Glad you liked my Saab 9-3 👍🏻

I contacted Adrian on the 11th February and he had a cancellation for the following day. Adrian sent information regarding the clean via e-mail then kept me updated on the day for his time of arrival. Once Adrian arrived he was very friendly and explained the process of the clean and diagnostics. Adrian clear some old codes on the car the sent me the codes he cleared plus live data while the carbon clean was happening, he also explained what all the data meant so I understood how the car was running. Even though I had no issues with the car and Adrian said that it was running perfect after the clean I have noticed I have gain between 5-10 mpg and the car is so quiet it’s like brand new and the biggest change is how responsive the car is now I have had the clean. I highly recommend this service even if like me you car is running fine it will still make a difference. Thanks, Adrian

I had Adrian come out today to carry out a carbon clean on my Jaguar XF. Adrian is a really friendly chap who really knows his stuff. I was updated very regularly with arrival times and he showed up exactly when he said he would. After he run a diagnostic on my car there were 9 fault codes and a lot of them to do with the fuel injectors and DPF. During the cleaning process, you could actually hear the engine getting quieter and smooth. After the carbon clean had finished the fault codes cleared themselves. I took the car out after the work was done, and could tell the difference straight away. The car feels more responsive, smoother and quiet. My MPG was averaging around 35.0 driving around my town. Now its shot up to 42.0. Absolutely amazing! Thank you so much, Adrian!

Adrian from Engine Carbon Clean came out to work on my wife's BMW 320d which had become sluggish and unresponsive and to put it bluntly, a bit of a pig to drive due to it doing a lot of short runs and the car being a diesel. After a full diagnostic check to ensure there were no problems which could prevent work being carried out (and all diagnostic reports being sent over to me), he proceeded with the carbon clean service which took less than an hour from start to finish, he even arrived slightly ahead of schedule. Wow, the results are unbelievable. The car is no longer sluggish and the throttle response is massively improved and it even sounds a bit nicer as well. Not only that he gave me a few pointers to keep the car running nice and clean in future as well. This is the second time I've had Adrian out and from the service on offer, it won't be the last. Very highly recommended! Great communication, knowledge, service and follow up, I literally can't fault this company at all. Thankyou.

I had Adrian out to carbon clean my car engine, he arrived exactly when he said he would, he was very professional and really seems to know his stuff, I would one hundred percent recommend him and his service. To be honest I didn’t think much was wrong when I booked in, I just wanted to have it cleaned out but Adrian carried out a full diagnostic on the car prior to the clean which did show some faults that I’ll have to address at some point. After the clean there’s a noticeable difference on the sound of the engine especially when starting from cold and I have definitely noticed how much more responsive it is, even in eco mode. I can’t comment on fuel efficiency just yet as I have been testing the responsiveness. In all seriousness, for the cost and the service I received I’m really happy, if you’re like me and I’m two minds, just get yourself booked in, you won’t regret it. Thanks Adrian.
