🔎 Initial inspection found an engine wobble and a significant amount of rumble and shake from the carbon present.

❗ The owner was typically doing short trips and using cheap fuel which had got the engine in this condition. The engine was struggling against the carbon buildup and this meant the engine mounts were degraded.

📊 Initial code read found some unrelated historic codes spread across the vehicle that we documented and cleared for the owner.

🔎 Live data all showed injector fuelling was acceptable, coolant temperature values fine, etc.

🧑‍🔧 On with the clean and it soon smoothed out, quietened down and by the end it was quiet, smooth and responsive again. The owner can now take it for retest, look to get the engine mounts inspected and replaced and switch to better fuel.
