QUOTE(bismaximus @ Aug 12 2024, 10:21 AM) I believe 70k is still not that high. My family owns an X70 with 120k+ KM mileage. It is still running smooth like new (albeit we just made a claim for a new gearbox). Retain your warranty and talk to your service advisor if you feel your car not performing as it should. i read one CX5 owner on FB, CX5 also come with GDI, got jerking, but SC unable to solve his even with Spark Plug change. That why ask is it better with Walnut, some mentioned no need cz warranty![]() This post has been edited by ayamtriplex: Aug 12 2024, 11:13 AM |

QUOTE(bismaximus @ Aug 12 2024, 12:29 PM) No doubt walnut blasting has been done a long time. But modern engines very rare carbon build up badly (less than 100k mileage la, I can be wrong). Unless you skip or delay oil changes and lenjan the car everyday, then maybe. getting a bit higher FC once passing 50k km onwards. This based on the meter per full tank. Jerking nope, smooth, I think similar as day 1Is your car jerking? Or significant performance drop? This post has been edited by ayamtriplex: Aug 12 2024, 12:55 PM |

QUOTE(ZeneticX @ Aug 12 2024, 12:55 PM) Carbon build up in GDI engines will be more serious if your car spends a lot of time in stop and go traffic or short distance travel. There's a thing call Italian Tune Up that will help prevent excessive build up. Some swear by it while others feel its redundant, can learn more about it yes for me, wife use this car mainly sending kids and pickup to school from home. I did read the GDI carbon due to no fuel (with additive) shooting the valve face cz directly into combustion chamber, hence u rev up high rpm also wont do the cleaning.@2:55 |

QUOTE(littlefire @ Aug 13 2024, 03:39 PM) If open up for sure they gonna ask you to do it, is either serious or not. Coz you also need to pay for them to open up the intake also, so it is better to wait until like serious jerking or loss of power then do better. Usually recommend is after warranty ends like 100k check 1 time. noted thanks for info |
