Signs that your engine may require a carbon clean include a loss of power, raised fuel consumption and an increase in emissions. Whether you use petrol or diesel, fuel never burns 100% efficiently and under some circumstances will leave carbon and other residues inside the engine. Vehicles often driven at low speed - for example in heavy traffic - are the most likely to accumulate deposits but many direct-injection engines are also prone. If there are significant deposits, an engine carbon clean will significantly restore the compression power of the engine and avert more serious problems. An engine carbon clean must be conducted with care so it is best to rely on the qualified fitters at a properly equipped garage such as International Tyres. Different methods are sometimes chosen according to the type of engine and the extent of the problem. Cars, vans and motorcycles can all benefit from an engine carbon clean and usually the treatment takes between 30 minutes and one hour (diesel engines need a longer treatment than petrol).

Modern fuels are great at keeping modern engines clean but only if the vehicle is driven under ideal conditions. When you do lots of short journeys through heavy traffic, soot and oily contaminants start accumulating in various places, degrading performance and eventually causing a breakdown. The particulate filter inside diesel vehicle exhausts (the DPF) is one of the most problematic locations. Cleaning improves the vehicle's performance, avoids emission failures and eliminates the risk of an expensive roadside recovery. DPF cleaning with Forte Power Clean Exhaust is a better option than a full manual strip-down. Our qualified fitters use a special machine to perform DPF cleaning with Forte Power Clean Exhaust which completely removes oil, soot and grime. The service also cleans your engine, fuel injectors and intake valves and includes an oil change. Prices are kept to a minimum because no dismantling is required. If you believe your vehicle may be susceptible to clogging, book DPF cleaning with Forte Power Clean Exhaust using our online garage contact form.
Manufacturers recommend that your vehicle’s air conditioning should be recharged with gas and lubricant every 2 years to keep it running effectively and efficiently. This service isn’t usually part of your annual vehicle service so if your vehicle is over 2 years old then a recharge is probably due. New gas recharge incurs 20% increase
