WHY INTAKE CLEANING MATTERS

Why Your Engine in {city} Needs Intake Manifold Cleaning

Carbon and oil carried back through the PCV and EGR systems gradually cake the intake runners and the back of the valves, especially on diesels and direct-injection engines. That build-up restricts airflow and leads to power loss, poor fuel economy and rough running. Cleaning clears it and restores proper flow.

Benefits:

  • Restores airflow and power - clears the carbon choking the intake.
  • Improves fuel economy - a free-flowing intake burns fuel more efficiently.
  • Smooths out rough running - removes the deposits upsetting the engine.
  • Clears heavy carbon on the runners and valves.
  • Cleaned on the vehicle - no major dismantling.
  • Mobile and fast - we come to you in {city}, most jobs in about an hour.

Stage 1 – Engine Decarbonising + Mass Air Flow Sensor Clean

$300 (inc GST)

The essential clean. A hydrogen decarbonising treatment plus a mass air flow (MAF) sensor clean that removes the everyday carbon build-up from normal driving. It restores lost throttle response, smooths out the idle and improves fuel economy. Best for petrol and diesel vehicles due for regular maintenance or showing early signs of carbon build-up. Includes a diagnostic check, and most jobs are done at your home or work in under an hour.

Stage 2 – Stage 1 + Throttle Body & EGR Extreme Clean

$325 (inc GST)

Everything in Stage 1 plus a throttle body clean and an EGR system decarbonise. The EGR valve is a common trouble spot, and a clogged one causes rough idling, hesitation, black smoke and warning lights. This stage clears that build-up at the source so your engine breathes properly again. Best for vehicles with warning lights, a rough idle or a noticeable drop in performance.

Stage 3 – DPF Decarbonising + Stage 1 & 2

$625 (inc GST)

The full diesel treatment. Everything in Stages 1 and 2 plus an on-vehicle DPF (diesel particulate filter) decarbonising clean. A blocked DPF triggers warning lights, limp mode and quotes for costly replacement, and our DPF cleaning clears it at the source without removing the filter. Best for diesel 4WDs and utes, vehicles with DPF warning lights, failed regenerations, or anything past 80,000km.

IS IT TIME FOR A CARBON CLEAN?

Signs Your Engine Has Carbon Buildup

As carbon builds up inside your engine, your car starts to tell you. You might notice it has lost its old get-up-and-go, it is drinking more fuel than it used to, or it hesitates when you put your foot down. Diesel owners around Adelaide and the Adelaide Hills often see a DPF or engine warning light, more frequent regenerations, or the dreaded limp mode. Catching these signs early and booking a carbon clean is far cheaper than waiting for a blocked DPF, a stuck EGR valve or a failed turbo. If your car is doing any of the following, it is a good time to give us a call.

  • Loss of power and acceleration

  • Using more fuel than usual

  • Rough or lumpy idle

  • DPF or engine warning light on

  • Black smoke from the exhaust

  • Hesitation or flat spots

  • Frequent DPF regenerations (diesels)

  • Limp mode

Oliver Pau

Top quality service and a top bloke. I explained that there was a problem with the EGR and he recommended the stage 2 carbon treatment on my Nissan Navara. He made sure to talk us through what he was doing and the steps he would take if the EGR plays up again.

Engine Carbon Cleaning – Frequently Asked Questions

What is engine carbon cleaning?
Engine carbon cleaning, also called engine decarbonising, removes the carbon deposits that build up inside your engine over time. We use a safe hydrogen (HHO) clean that lifts and burns away carbon from the valves, intake, EGR system and DPF, with no parts removed and no engine pull-down.
How does the hydrogen clean work?
Our machine produces HHO gas (hydrogen and oxygen) and feeds it into your engine through the air intake while the engine runs. The hydrogen burns hotter than fuel, breaking down the carbon deposits, which then clear out through the exhaust. It is a clean, non-invasive process.
How long does it take?
Most cleans take about 1 to 2.5 hours, depending on your vehicle and how much carbon has built up. Diesels usually take a little longer than petrol engines. In most cases you are back on the road within the hour.
Do you come to me?
Yes. We are a fully mobile service and we come to you anywhere across Adelaide and the Adelaide Hills, at home or at work. If you are not sure we reach your suburb, just call us on 0402 622 166 and ask.
What vehicles can you clean?
We clean all petrol and diesel engines, including cars, 4WDs, utes and vans. The service is especially popular with diesel 4WD and ute owners, and with any higher-mileage or turbocharged vehicle.
Will it fix my DPF warning light?
In most cases, yes. When the DPF warning light is caused by carbon blockage, which is the most common cause, our DPF decarbonising clean clears those deposits at the source without removing the filter. If the light is caused by a faulty sensor or a mechanical fault, we will let you know.
Is it safe for my engine?
Yes. Hydrogen carbon cleaning is a proven process used by workshops worldwide. It runs while your engine is at normal operating temperature and does not involve any harsh dismantling, so it is gentle on your engine.
How often should I get it done?
As a guide, diesels with a DPF benefit from a clean every 50,000 to 80,000 km, and petrol engines every 80,000 to 100,000 km. Cars driven mostly around town or on short trips can benefit more often.
How much does it cost?
We offer four stages, and all prices include GST: Stage 1 from $300, Stage 2 $325, Stage 3 (with DPF) $625, and Stage 4 (with intake manifold) $625. Not sure which one you need? Call us and we will help you choose.
How do I book?
Simply call or message us on 0402 622 166 with your car details and location, and we will book a time that suits you. We come to you, with clear up-front pricing before we start.
