When I do an oil change I add a tin of Millars first and run the engine to clear any gunk etc. I also use injector cleaner to fill my fuel filter when changing that, fill filter, run engine for a minute so it enters the system, shut down and leave over night so it can do its job.
I also had a Terraclean performed last year and initially the car seemed a lot smoother but that could've been a placebo effect lol...

DONE: HAD A CRAZY IDEA THAT I HAD TO GET RID OF MY MG ZTT DUE TO NOT HAVING A DRIVE AND HAVING TO PARK ON A BUSY STREET WITH A VIEW TO GETTING ANOTHER ONE AT A LATER DATE WHEN I HAVE A DRIVE.
ENDED UP REALISING IT REALLY ISN'T PRACTICAL NOT HAVING A CAR TO GET AROUND AND I NOW OWN A VW EOS 3.2 V6 INDIVIDUAL (1 OF 20 REMAINING IN THE UK WITH THAT ENGINE AND TRIM COMBO) EVEN THOUGH I STILL LIVE ON A BUSY ROAD WITHOUT A DRIVE
