It is important you go to a garage that uses the latest technology to offer the

Walnut Shell Blasting One of the services we have available as BMW and Mini
specialists is walnut shell blasting. This offers several benefits to your
vehicles engine through cleaning it, including:
Cleans
Intake Port Cleans
Valves Improves
Acceleration Improves
Air Flow Reduces
Hesitation Removes
Build Up Restores
Lost Power Within your engine, the inlet chamber and valves are
cleaned, removing and preventing carbon build up which becomes a problems on
modern direct injection engines. Using walnut shell blasting will remove this
problem from engine chambers.
This method is also very safe to clean the linking of
engine. As walnut shells break down into smaller granules and are blasted at
high speed, they can easily remove deposits of the lining without creating
grooves in the engine that could cause more problems. Our walnut shell blasting
is always available to our clients if your engine is losing its high
performance.
Walnut shells will not wear metal within your vehicle like other
substances such as sand. They will only remove unwanted deposits to restore the
original design of every vehicle and engine.
Why Carbon Build-Up Occurs Walnut shell blasting is a great solution to carbon
build-ups within your vehicle, which could occur if there is an excessive build
up of air, oil and fuel vapour. Carbon build-up could occur in both turbo and
high-performance applications. Whilst engines have a valve to release this
pressure that the carbon causes, some substances can begin to settle and form a
gunk.
As modern engines no longer clean the valves anymore, this
could occur in any vehicle. Whilst we specialise in both BMWs and Minis, we can
provide our service on any vehicles, creating a better burn and efficiency by
feeding fuel straight into the combustion chamber to prevent carbon build-ups.
Swirl Flaps Swirl flaps are another feature on your vehicle that was
designed to create a tumble of air for better combustion. Swirl flaps are
controlled by a vacuum of solenoid actuator, which close during vehicle
processes such as idling, changing gear and deceleration, maximising your
combustion efficiency.
Swirl flaps open fully during higher load conditions to
maximise your power output. Swirl flaps can cause problems to your vehicle due
to a poor design. If swirl flaps were to break, debris can fall into the engine
causing jams, which leads to engine overheating and breakdowns.
To resolve this problem, BMW introduced an updated manifold
in 2004. Purchasing a new manifold could mean this problem still occurs but it
is an improved option.
Our team offer an easier and more affordable option, using
custom manufactured blanking plates. Your vehicle will require no modification
for these installations to be made and the performance will never drop.
Blanking plates is the best option to prevent your engine performance
dropping due to swirl flaps. We can always talk you through the options for BMW
engines, helping all clients gain the highest possible performance.
