Live Data Diagnostics

Live Data Diagnostic

The devil is in the detail - live data is essential for a proper diagnosis. Especially where an engine code may not be found on a cheap reader or a code not logged yet, e.g. thermostat or failing sensor.

Very experienced and reliable service found a problem with my thermostat that was causing the loss of MPG that was the initial reason for contact and having the carbon clean and diagnostic highly recommend there is alot of others but glad I chose this company to do the work well worth the money

Adrian arrived on time & explained exactly what the service consisted of. My vehicle then underwent a full diagnostic check to make sure that the service could go ahead. Once the checks were completed the carbon clean started whilst the whole time Adrian monitored the diagnostic readings on his tablet & when he was 💯 % sure that the system was cleaned throughout he told me to take it out to see how my vehicle was performing. Within a few minutes I immediately noticed the response whilst accelerating was noticeable straight away. My only regret is not of having this type of professional servicing done earlier. I fully recommend F5 carbon to anyone whose vehicle would benefit a clean and tune up.

Great service, was clear with arrival time and was nice as well. Car was okay before the clean so it was preventative maintenance only, but even considering that, the car runs very nicely now.

After a narrow emissions fail at MOT for our 9 year old Landrover Adrian was able to fit us in on very short notice. Booking was simple, and he arrived bang on time. Great customer service throughout, happy to advise and explain not only what to expect but also how to keep cars in best possible shape between visits.Would thoroughly recommend on every aspect of both service and results. (And yes, the car passed its retest)

Was great to see Adrian again to perform a carbon clean on my Range Rover sport and on my wife’s Ford kuga. Both are beautifully quiet once again and restored the power again again. Always quality work and everything explained as always. Will see you again in another 20k. 👍👍

Just had my car completed with this company and I found the service to be friendly and professional. I was given clear information on the process beforehand with good instructions on what to do to prepare the car. The service took just under and hour and my vehicle was treated with care and carbon cleaned as requested. I was not expecting a night and day difference but got a more responsive car and a quieter engine. My car also had a known miss fire and even this greatly decreased. It is definitely worth a go especially if you have done many miles and my direct injection engine needed it. I also got diagnostic read outs showing was healthy aside from the slight misfire. 5 ✨✨✨✨✨

Adrian was prompt on time and very knowledgeable, the cleaning process takes around 45 minutes with a free engine check service for codes and possible future problems that could be occurring.Now before this clean my car was running rubbish i must say and now after the clean it's like brand new, no dipping when I accelerate now smooth idle and no more nasty smells when on stationary tick over.So if your car is running rough, smelling and not performing well, then give Adrian a call, he will come to you.😉

Prevention is better than repair!

A booking with us is essentially a health check and detox for your vehicle.

Our IMI Certified service is about looking after the overall health of the vehicle, not just turning up to ‘perform a clean’.

Every booking starts with a health check, a diagnostic code scan of the entire vehicle looking for underlying issues (where applicable) and Live data diagnostics throughout to identify issues with injectors, fuel pumps, sensors, etc. which may not be logging errors.

We provide a MOBILE service and come to you anywhere across the East Midlands and West Midlands counties, plus we also cover Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, into East Anglia and Lincolnshire up into Yorkshire.

A dirty engine has to work harder against the dirt. To do this it uses more fuel, vibrates more causing more noise, shaking and lumpy running and increases emissions eventually causing MOT failure.

The more it shakes the more it will wear parts such as engine mounts, clutches, etc. so combat this before it becomes a problem.

Keeping your engine cleaned on a regular basis helps prevent issues such as DPF issues, MOT emissions failures or sticking turbos.

An Engine Carbon Clean is great at cleaning up the back of a turbo, combustion chamber, injector tips, pistons, cylinders and cats to get a vehicle running smooth, quiet, responsive, economical and emissions friendly again.

DPF Investigation and Clean Service

Yes. All hydrocarbon engines create carbon build up depending on the mileage, driving style, journey length and fuel quality used.

You can clean petrol, diesel, LPG, hybrid or anything else such as methane.  Not just cars and vans, but we also work on boats, tractors, tanks, generators, landfill engines, anything really.

Typical symptoms include a decline in fuel economy, noisier engine, increased vibration, sluggish response and smoke/emissions levels.

As fuel economy and emission targets have got stricter over the years the engine components have been developed and added in order to keep the soot within the vehicle rather than passing it out through the exhaust. This then clogs up EGR valves, inlet manifolds and DPFs.

If you have just bought a vehicle or warranty is due to expire then it is a perfect time to get it checked out and cleaned up.

As part of your regular maintenance plan an ideal time is just prior to a service or MOT to help keep your vehicle running smoothly, quietly, economically and with low emissions.  Prevention is better than cure.

Most people are coming back for repeats approximately every 15-20k miles based on driving style, journey length and fuel quality.

Yes it does and it is very good at what it does as long as the relevant pre-checks are performed to ensure an effective clean and critically it is done by someone who is properly trained, certified, with the right approach and equipment.

An Engine Carbon Clean is great at cleaning up the back of a turbo, combustion chamber, injector tips, pistons, cylinders and cats to get a vehicle running smooth, quiet, responsive, economical and emissions friendly again, but will not clean up cold areas such as EGR valves or inlet manifolds and won’t unblock a DPF.

The only way to clean up these cold areas safely and effectively is a manual approach, e.g. strip and clean of the EGR or ‘walnut blast’ the inlet.

The Engine Carbon Clean is complementary to these manual approaches as they are targeted at different areas.

Cleaning up the combustion chamber cleans up the source of the dirt – this helps minimise future buildup in the EGR and inlet manifold as well as extends the mileage between DPF regenerations.
