Best Engine/ Fuel Cleaner

[dave32]

ive read on here that most people use bg244 as there choice of cleaner, but can i ask why? im not the most knowledgeable person about cars etc but i do know millers is a top make and you can get there product for half the price.

also what is ar6200 actually used for??

You can use whatever you like. Try the Millers and report back.

The AR6200 promotes cleaner burning at a lower temperature, and helps to reduce carbon deposits.

Sorry, I only just noticed you have a 220d.....duh!

From my own experiences...I had a 220d for nearly two years...I would strongly recommend that you try both BG244 (as a top end carbon/soot remover) and also try AR6200 (as afuel additive to help clean burning of fuel) or similar product as I found they worked rather well. Both are still used on the 220 as my son now has the car.

While on the subject of cleaning I cleaned my egr valve and looking inside my inlet manifold I noticed a lot of sludge which I tried to get off by scraping it off and putting into a cloth but there was quite abit how does this get removed and does the manifold need to come off????

Have a look at my links in post #5 above. The cleaning kit that I used did a splendid job, it doesn't just clean the EGR Valve. If you need more information and some expert guidance, Give Peter Trott a call, his details are given somewhere in the thread, he is extremely helpful and even offers to do the job if the person requiring help lives within a reasonable distance.

Sorry to all for posting on a few threads wanted to let plenty of people know I was having a terra clean today and will get back to you with the results good or bad!!!

[Guest bigbullhead]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!

That's the first word that came to mind when I drove out of the garage after having a terra-clean for 2 months now my car has not had much poke in all gears to a point I hated driving it but after this treatment hand on heart I noticed the difference straight away so to all you deisel owners with high mileage cars I would recommend it to get your car back to somewhere it should of been pre 70000 miles

That is very good to hear. Think there may be quite a few 220d/200d drivers out there that will benefit from giving this a try.

Thanks very much for giving the heads up to all.
