Diagnostic Consultation and Engine Carbon Clean on a Vauxhall Insignia 2.0 (2014 – 142,380 miles)

⚠️ Vehicle not as quiet, smooth, responsive or economical as it used to be?

🚗 Here we have a Vauxhall Insignia 2.0 (2014 – 142,380 miles) booked in for a diagnostic consultation and Engine Carbon Clean with no apparent issues and the owner just wanting to restore it and keep it running sweetly.

🔎 Initial inspection found little of note with no obvious rattling or excessive vibration. A bass note was present indicating the buildup present.

💻 Initial diagnostics found a historic engine code for a misfire due to low fuel levels amongst some other historic codes and once documented and cleared it was code free for the duration of the booking.

📊 Live data looked good with coolant temperatures in and around 90°C throughout, DPF data showing nice low backpressure, low soot levels and 70 miles since the last regeneration with an average of 548 miles between regenerations.

❗ With a fair few aborted regeneration events we advised the customer to keep above ¼ tank of fuel at all times to allow regeneration to proceed when requested.

👨‍🔧 On with the clean and although running pretty nicely already by the end it was quiet, smooth and responsive again.
