Well it is the same with your car. When accelerating, you are controlling how much fuel and air the engine takes in. The mixture goes into the combustion chamber of an engine cylinder were it is ignited. This then powers the engine.

The issue is, it produces a by product called carbon. This carbon collects in the air intake, combustion chamber, and exhaust system, which will restrict your car’s ability to breathe properly.

• Vehicle performance issues, feeling sluggish etc
• Running rough
• Poor vehicle emissions
• Poor fuel economy

In extreme cases it could result in engine damage...

These mainly occur due to the fact that the carbon deposits inside the engine may restrict the air mixing with the petrol  which in turn could cause the mixture to be not as efficient when igniting, causing a loss of power.

To fix the problem, we carry out an EGR system service. This pushes cleaning mixture throughout the throttle body, intake manifold, intake valves, combustion chamber, piston crowns, cylinder heads, EGR valves, oxygen sensors and catalytic converters while restoring your vehicle to its optimum running condition this ensures that a clean mixture of air and petrol creates an efficient mix for the vehicle.

So call the team at Cowaramup Autotech and book your car in for its EGR Service.
