- 2012 SV6 Commodore Series 2 Sedan
Hey Folks,
my 2012 SV6 Commodore had 45000km service done today.
dealer said he recommends "Induction Service" and "Carbon Clean" (talked about throttle body carbon buildup)
Questions:
1)
Induction Service 135$, Carbon Clean $285 ??? WTH.... from what I understand one uses a rag with TB cleaner and cleans it ! They are trying to upsell me because I have capped price logbook service here, right?
He said I might have issues with higher fuel consumption and response. pfff... Runs nicely, no problems, fuel consumption 10,4l/100 with quite some city stop/start and aircon on...
Please tell me I should refrain from that !
2) Can I give the engine (3.6l SIDI) one of those Liqui Moli Fuel System Cleaner things without danger? ( http://forums.justcommodores.com.au...ui-moly-fuel-system-cleaner-engine-detox.html ). Will be on a 500km nonstopdrive on saturday, so that might be a good opportunity for that?
Thanks for your thoughts guys !
