    Hi, I had a carbon clean done on my mazda a couple of months ago, as well as oil flush and replacement oil strainer... 2,000 miles later and im getting a really weird Vehicle System Malfunction warning that appears at random intervals and usually under heavier than normal acceleration. The car still runs fine and no change to engine noise. Any ideas? I would hope it wouldnt be cabon buildup again already but I'm at a complete loss.

Over slightly longer distances, droplets and coolant in reservoir may rise or even spray out through the overflow. Again, I could be wrong...but mine started this way and the spraying got worse...it was time for proper a head gasket change. Changed exhaust cam as well. Again, I could be wrong.

    This carbon build up was needed on my 2.2 skyactive Mazda 6. Engine light came on at 130,000 which got done at dealership as a full clean due to carbon. Then it needed it again at 148,000 miles and again it needed it being done by dealership. Now at 180,000 the RPM goes up and down when warm at idle and blowing unburnt fuel through exhaust. So I think I need this doing again.

    Thanks for the video. Think mine needs this, discovered it within 3 weeks of buying from a dealer, car went in to limp mode code P24A5 EGR valve stuck. I tried to excercise my right to reject the vehicle under consumer rights act 2015 (issue raised within 30 days) but he went dark so will have to take it to court. In the mean time, are you still doing this full carbon clean? Mine is an auto so would need to take front wheel off and remove plastic cover and turn engine over until cyl 2 or 3 is fully open then clean other cylinders, then turn over again and fully close 2/3 and clean that last.

    • @rp8930

      Depends on mileage, it will generally always be better for the engine to have a clean EGR and intake manifold. I generally do not recommend turning off EGR, if something is and works, it should be like that. Unless it breaks. But now it is possible to buy a used one and continue to use it.

    Respect for this job! You're awesome, R P :) If I'd like to clean just the throttle body with throttle body cleaner, do you know if getting access there requires disassembling the battery and getting all the air intake tubes off or is there any trick to get only there without disassembling a half of the engine? ;) I found some videos with cleaning throttle body, but all of them had a very easy access and it seems that 2.2 Skyactive-D is a different level of a challenge ;) I would very appreciate your answer, R P :)

      hi, to clean the throttle you don't need to remove the battery and intake. Just cleaning the throttle won't do much for you. For a good effect, you need to perform the steps as in the movie. It takes a lot of work, but the effect is the best.
