Diagnostic Consultation on a Mercedes C220 with an injector leak (2009 – 115,334 miles) – NO CLEAN

⚠️ Just bought a vehicle? Have any warranty with it? Use it! Get it checked out and cleaned up with our Which? Trusted Traders approved service.

Here we have a Mercedes C220 (2009 – 115,334 miles) originally booked in for diagnostic consultation and Engine Carbon Clean.

ℹ️ The owner had just purchased it with a 3 month warranty and having used us before had pre-booked us in advance to come and check it out and cleaned up.

Initial inspection found a tell-tale ‘chuffing’ noise when we lifted the bonnet and sure enough found a leaking injector.

ℹ️ No clean on this one today as it will get dirty again fairly quickly with a leaking injector and also needs to be sorted out to ensure it is safe to proceed.

Initial diagnostics found active codes relating to the glow plug controller/plugs in the engine section plus other active and historic codes in other parts of the car which we documented and cleared for the owner.

Live data monitoring showed decent values for most other components such as the EGR, but the fuelling was out again confirming the visual on the injector leak. Temperature finally climbed to 90°C after a lot of persistence, but when tested plummeted to 70°C indicating a lazy thermostat.

‍NO CLEAN TODAY – priority is to get this back under warranty armed with the photos and diagnostic report and then get the issues resolved. We can come back another day to finish off the booking and perform the clean along with checking the issues have been resolved.

Adrian is a lovely fella, explained the process, carried it out well, clearly done exactly what it needed to do as I blew a load of stuff out the back when I drove it after. Will definitely be coming back in the future.

Steve arrived to give my Jaguar xfs an engine carbon clean. Presently on 107,000 miles. Explained the process and was obviously very knowledgeable about the process and expected outcomes. And he was a thoroughly nice chap.
The V6 in the xfs is a quiet, smooth, powerful unit and I was not sure of what improvements I would get. Well, I’m impressed. The power delivery is smoother, the engine even quieter and 6 mpg better to boot.
If you want to do one thing to maintain and improve your motor, then this is what you should do.

Leon came out to my car about a month ago. He was brilliant, he did some diagnostics, asked some questions and then got to work sorting out my problem. He was extremely thorough and I could tell he genuinely cares about providing a first class service. Fantastic!

Iv had the pleasure of having 2 Carbon cleans from both Adrian and Mark. Both lovely gentlemen and you can tell they love what they do. My car failed on emissions and this helped me get the car through the test, and at the time, I REALLY needed a pass because I couldn’t get anywhere. These guys saved me. Not only that, it’s a lot cheaper here compared to other places also. Thank you so much and look forward to seeing you in future endeavours.
