Norlang Auto provides Walnut Blasting in Langley, helping our customers benefit from this form of carbon cleaning for their vehicle, while also ensuring it performs as it was originally intended!
Understanding Carbon Cleaning for Your Vehicle
Over time, carbonized fuel and oil can build up in your vehicle’s intake tract and valves. This will affect your vehicle’s performance as it prevents the intake valves from closing properly. Over time, this can result in:
- Rough sounding idle
- Vibrations
- Reduced power
- Engine misfires
- Check Engine warning light activation
- Increase in oil consumption
The recommended frequency of a walnut shell blasting service tends to vary amidst vehicle models. Manufacturers – such as BMW, recommend that walnut blasting be performed every 50,000 kilometres in order to maintain fuel efficiency and engine performance. In general, having this service scheduled every 35,000 to 65,000 kilometres is ideal – based, of course, on your driving habits.
Walnut Blasting in Langley
As discussed on our Walnut Blasting Service Page…
At Norlang Auto, we are frequently told by our customers that they believe the performance of their vehicles has decreased even though they service them and change the oil on a regular basis. As the mileage of your car increases, it starts to become more sluggish and not as fuel efficient as it was designed to be. This is due to carbon build-up or carbonizing that occurs in the intake tract and valves.
This problem is one of the main disadvantages facing modern vehicles with gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines. GDI engines are found in more and more models since manufacturers are able to increase fuel mileage, power and efficiency much more effectively than with any other type of fuel injection system. This type of engine is normally found in European vehicles like Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Mini Cooper, Volkswagen and many more. It is now being used in as much as 45% of 2015 and newer North American and Asian vehicles..
