Default EGR and inlet manifold cleaning

Been to the first Terraclean "workshop" today (Edd China there).

I thought I'd impart this with you. One of the products in the pipeline is an EGR cleanser machine. Hooked up to the car and it cleans out the EGR, inlet manifold etc, etc etc (in situ). It's a foaming process, a bit like a blocked drain. It will not be available for 18months as tests are on-going and the mechanical process has to be approved.

BUT.........what will be available in the next few months is the chemical that will clean the EGR, intercooler tubes and inlet manifold etc etc (if you want to remove them from the car) simply by dipping it in a basin for 15mins and giving them the odd swish. I have told the European supplier there is definitely a market for just the chemical, so he is going to bring it forward as soon as possible. The mechanical process will no doubt be in the region of £100 (I have no idea really) but our cars are so simple, to remove these parts, and dip them, has got to be the cheapest and best option.

I will keep you posted should anyone not fancy the 3hr scrub approach.
